","content_main":"<p>Tasmania has a wonderful wild brown trout fishery and I specialise in taking people fly fishing on the Central Highland Lakes, either fishing from my boat or wading. I welcome clients of all levels of fly fishing experience, and in particular spend a lot of time helping people take their first steps on their fly fishing journey. Learning to fly fish is a great challenge to take on at any stage of life &#8211; you never stop learning.<\/p>\n<p>My own fishing journey started around 50 years ago and in recent years I have taken the experience I built up in 20 years of recreational fly fishing to establish my own small business. <\/p>\n<p>I work with very small groups &#8211; ideally one or two people &#8211; so that their experience can be optimised. I like to learn about my guests and tailor my input to their particular needs.  A day with me if fully inclusive &#8211; all gear can be supplied and the day is catered. I&#8217;m an accredited tour operator, have appropriate insurances, first aid qualifications and am accredited to operate from my boat. <\/p>\n<p>If clients are planning a larger group I am happy to put a package together in collaboration with other Tasmanian guides. I am a member of Trout Guides and Lodges Of Tasmania and would draw on the expertise of others in the Association.<\/p>\n<p>I tie many of my own trout flies, building on the Tasmanian traditional trout flies, and over the course of a day we will experiment with many of them. Wet flies &#8211; streamers and fur flies early in the season. Dry flies &#8211; mayflies, emergers, spinners and beetles as the season warms up.<\/p>\n<p>Fly fishing is a bucket list experience for many and I&#8217;m happy to help clients fulfil that bucket list. And Tasmania is a wonderful setting for your experience.<\/p>\n","url":"https:\/\/www.thehighlandfly.com.au\/","url_text":"thehighlandfly.com.au","main_services":"Fly fishing Guide, Trout Fishing Charter, Learn to Fly Fish","image_1":"https:\/\/diib.com\/featuredmembers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Logo-The-Highland-Fly.jpg","client_review":"","why_we":"","history":"","image_2":false,"image_3":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Highland Fly - 5 Star Featured Members<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Explore The Highland Fly in Australia, offering 5-star trout fishing experiences on the Central Highland Lakes of Tasmania.
