Some leader set up chat with some hellishly bad tan lines😂

There are so many nuances within fly fishing, here I talk a little on my dry fly leader setup. It’s not an exhaustive explanation, just a quick chat. ...

📖 End of an Era 🎣

The Devon School of Fly Fishing has had a special connection with The Fox and Hounds for almost 20 years. Thousands of people began their fly fishing journey on the Taw right there at The Fox, thanks to the school founded by Pete Tyjas.
In 2020 I was lucky enough to take the school on from Pete, and since then I’ve loved looking after hotel guests, sharing great days on the river, and creating plenty of happy memories.

2025 will be my last year at Fox & Hounds Country Hotel Devon. It’s bittersweet, but I’m really excited to focus on bespoke accommodation and new waters that suit guests’ needs even better. Lots of exciting announcements to come in 2026!

Wishing Matt & Helen and there fantastic team all the very best.

Tight lines,
Gerald 🎣✨

As always, it was enjoyable to spend a few days in the company of fellow Aapgai members at the biannual assessment and open day weekend in glorious Wales. The demonstrations on the Saturday were excellent and well received by the audience.

Well done to everyone who took there assessments, it’s a real journey of discovery.
