Orientation
When you come to fish on the Gairha beat we will arrange to meet you in person, provide you with the latest river reports and a detailed map of the beat showing the best pools in which to stalk your prey. We will also show you where to park your car and the location of the various access points to the river. We would be happy to advise you on what equipment to use for the best results, depending on the current state of the river at the time.
Equipment & First Time Instruction
We do not normally rent or hire rods and other equipment, as you are expected to provide your own. However we can usually arrange for a suitable set of equipment for a first time pupil taking instruction from one of our ghillies if they do not yet own their own, on the understanding that if you damage it you will be charged for the estimated cost of repair or replacement.
Ghillie Guided Fishing
A ghillie is available to help you make the most of your fishing at Gairha by accompanying you along the beat, showing you the best pools if you so require. Our ghillies are professional instructors and offer expert tuition in the art of fly casting, both to the complete beginner and also coaching to those who wish to improve their technique and knowledge. Please advise us at least 24 hours in advance if you would like to avail of one of our ghillies. Ghillie fees must be paid directly to the ghillie.
