Booking a fly fishing lesson, guided day or gift voucher with Go Fly Fishing UK is very easy. Once you are happy with your chosen fly fishing service simply phone or email us to confirm the details and we will reserve your day or send you your gift voucher.
To make your booking or for further information please telephone 01252 851397 or 01756 748378 or email us at info@goflyfishinguk.com.
Note that payments by credit card will attract a £3 service charge per transaction. This does not apply to payments by debit card. In the case of payments by US dollar or Euro cheque, bank transfer or debit card a £10 currency conversion charge will be added per transaction. Payments of balance on the fishing day must be made by £ sterling cheque or cash.
Please telephone 01252 851397 or 01756 748378 to provide your card details. If we do not answer (quite possibly because we are out fishing with clients) please leave your name and telephone number and we will call you back at the earliest opportunity.
To confirm your booking you must pay a £75 booking deposit when booking a gift voucher or when booking a specific fishing date (£75 per day or half-day). Short notice bookings (within a week of the fishing date) and bookings on south of England rivers during the peak Mayfly season (mid-May to mid-June) will require payment in full at the time of booking.
All dates are booked on a first come first served basis. Your date is secured in the diary of our guide/instructor by payment of a deposit and in some cases (see below), in addition by payment of the fishing day ticket cost.
Where the fishing location chosen must be pre-booked, to confirm your booking you must pay the £75 booking deposit plus 100% of the cost of the fishing day ticket. This will be advised to you at the time of booking and applies to all Hampshire, Berkshire, Wiltshire and Cotswolds river locations plus a small number of other UK locations.
For beginners fly fishing lessons and fly fishing gift vouchers for beginners fly fishing lessons a one day beginners temporary rod licence is included in our quoted price. For guided days the responsibility for obtaining this (non-migratory trout) licence is the liability of each individual fisherman. These can be bought for a day, week or year, and must be obtained in advance either from any Post Office or from the EA website at www.environment-agency.gov.uk/subjects/fish.
Your date is confirmed once we have received your booking deposit plus any specified fishing day ticket costs. If we have not received your deposit/fishing day ticket payment within 10 days of your booking request being made we reserve the right to offer that date to other clients. The balance of the cost must be paid on or before the fishing day.
The gift voucher supplied is valid once we have received either your booking deposit payment of £75 or full payment. If you initially pay just the booking deposit the balance of the cost becomes due once the date of the fishing has been booked and confirmed with the gift recipient. In this case we will re-contact you at this time to request payment of the balance. If that balance payment is not received at least one month ahead of the agreed fishing date we reserve the right to cancel the fishing day of the gift recipient.
Once a deposit has been paid and a gift voucher has been sent we do not accept gift voucher cancellations. However if the original gift recipient did not appreciate their gift we will allow the gift (and any associated monies paid) to be transferred to any other person(s) and if required we will supply a maximum of one new printed or emailed gift voucher at no additional charge to allow the gift to be re-given to a new recipient.
All our guides/instructors are self-employed and in many cases fly fishing guiding/ instruction is their full time profession and only source of income. Once you have paid your deposit and your booking is in their diary they can accept no other work opportunities for that date. Thus by canceling or postponing the date of your fly fishing day you are reducing their opportunity to take paid work on that day. Once you request a specific date you should be committed to that date. If you postpone your date at short notice for whatever reason you may lose all or some of your monies paid (see notice periods below). If we cancel or postpone your date you will lose no monies paid and you may either receive a full refund or carry these monies forward to a future date.
Peak season – 1st April to 31st October – two weeks. Low-season – 1st November to 31st March – one week. If you contact us ahead of these times to give us notice of your wish to postpone your day then your £75 booking deposit can be carried across to an alternative future date. However any fishing day ticket costs paid will be forfeited.
Bad weather, bad water conditions or lack of fish catches are outside of the control of Go Fly Fishing UK and its guides/instructors. In the event that a day is spoilt by any factor outside of the control of Go Fly Fishing UK and its guides/instructors no refund of any monies paid will be made. Should the chosen river be high or unsafe to fish we reserve the right to substitute the river location with a suitable stillwater option. In matters of safety the decision of the guide/instructor is final and no refund of monies paid will be made if it is necessary to stop fishing at any stage during the day.
Our guide/instructor will wait for 60 minutes at the agreed meeting point. If you have not made contact with your guide/instructor and agreed a later meeting time and do not arrive at the agreed meeting point within 60 minutes of the agreed meeting time your day will be deemed to have been cancelled by yourself and all monies paid will be forfeited.
Full–day - up to 8 hours to include a one hour break. The 8 hours, to be taken from the agreed meeting time. During the winter season after the clocks have changed days will be shorter. Winter days will start around 9am and end at dusk.
