🎣 Little Moons Fishing Academy – We’re Back!
It’s been a little while… but guess what? We’re back on the banks and we returned with a splash.

We held our very first Night Fish experience, and to say it was successful would be an understatement.
Personal bests were smashed and old bonds grew even stronger under the stars.

This is what Little Moons is all about, not just fishing, but connection, growth, and those unforgettable moments that shape young hearts.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported, and made it so special. The night reminded us: we’re not just building anglers we’re building a community.

Stay tuned… this is just the beginning.

Little Moons on the Move Stanwick Edition
Today we cast our lines into new waters at the stunning Stanwick Lakes Fisheries and what a day it was. The team welcomed us with open arms and made us feel right at home (massive thanks to you all, your support doesn’t go unnoticed).

Rain or shine, the boys showed up with grit, grins, and goals. No weather could dampen the spirit of these young anglers. From their first cast to their last, they each took one more step toward becoming not just better fishermen... but better versions of themselves.

Watching these young souls rise, connect with nature, and grow in confidence - it’s an honour beyond words.

Super proud of them for championing every challenge.

The Little Moons shine bright, and they’re only just getting started.

🌊🎣 **Another Fantastic Day with Little Moons Fishing Academy!** 🎣🌊

This weekend, we had the pleasure of venturing out to Billing Aquadrome for yet another incredible experience with Little Moons Fishing Academy. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and a sense of community that made us feel right at home.

The team at Billing Aquadrome Fishery couldn’t have done more to support us throughout the day. Their dedication and enthusiasm were evident as they provided expert guidance, ensuring that everyone, from beginners to seasoned anglers, had the tools and knowledge to enjoy a successful fishing trip.

Whether it was helping us set up our rods, sharing tips on the best techniques, or simply cheering us on as we reeled in our catches, their support made all the difference. It’s not just about fishing; it’s about building friendships and creating unforgettable memories.

A huge thank you to the entire billing team for making our day so special. We can’t wait for our next adventure together! Let’s keep casting those lines and sharing the love of fishing. 🎣❤️

🎣 Help Us Put Whips in Little Hands! 🎣
At Little Moons Fishing Academy, we believe in giving every child the chance to connect with nature, build confidence, and discover the magic of fishing. But we need your help.

We’re currently looking for donations to purchase whips (short fishing poles) so our youngest anglers — some as young as five — can start learning with the right tools in hand.

Many of the children who come to us have never held a rod before. Some come from tough backgrounds or need extra support emotionally. A simple whip can be the first step toward focus, calm, and a sense of achievement — it’s more than just fishing; it’s therapy, growth, and connection.

Can you help us put a whip into a child’s hands this summer?
Every donation, no matter how small, helps us get closer to our goal. Whether you can cover one whip or chip in for a few hooks, it all adds up.

To donate or sponsor equipment, message us directly or drop into the lodge. Let’s build something special for the next generation, one cast at a time.

Thank you from the heart,
Kathryn & the Little Moons Crew
Rooted in nature. Powered by purpose.

🌟 **A Glorious Day at Little Moons Fishing Academy!** 🎣

What a fantastic day we had, filled with laughter and joy as we celebrated Blake’s birthday! The sun was shining, and we kicked off the festivities with some delightful strawberry picking and, of course, indulging in the sweetest treats. 🍓

We also had the pleasure of learning about carp fishing with the amazing Wayne, who shared his knowledge and passion with our eager young anglers.

A big shoutout to Fjuka Anglers for providing free bait, making our fishing experience even more exciting! 🎉

As we continue to grow, we’re on the lookout for enthusiastic anglers who want to get involved with the children. If you have a passion for fishing and want to share your skills, we’d love to have you join our team! We’re happy to cover the costs for any necessary qualifications.

Let’s come together to inspire the next generation of fishing enthusiasts! If you're interested, please reach out. Tight lines! 🎣✨

🌟 **Weekend Adventures with Little Moons** 🎣

What an unforgettable weekend we had! Our journey began with some exciting worm grunting, where we learned the art of attracting fish using just the basics. It was a fantastic opportunity for everyone to connect with nature and appreciate the simple joys of fishing.

We also got creative, making our own fishing poles from sticks and discovering that sometimes, all you need are the essentials to enjoy a day by the water. It was a great lesson in resourcefulness and fun!

This weekend was particularly special as we participated in our very first away event at Holly Farm, with some of our boys entering into a competitive match. The atmosphere was electric, and the camaraderie among the team was truly heartwarming.

A special thank you to Marchant 773 Angling for making us feel so welcome and inclusive throughout the event. Your hospitality and support made a significant difference in our experience!

To top it all off, our uniforms arrived, leaving us all feeling exceptionally unified and proud to represent our group.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on this adventure! We can’t wait for more amazing experiences together. 🎉
