Thanks for a great day yesterday Stewart.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tuition, chat and your company ( Geo’s too).

The weather didn’t diminish my enjoyment in the slightest and catching my first trout was a great experience.

What a fantastic afternoon chasing early season wild brown trout in small streams with Stewart. I have been fly fishing for 7 years and learnt so much more in just a few special hours in Assynt with fantastic and patient guiding. Just looking at the photos that Stewart kindly took on the day and they really captured the day and the surroundings brilliantly. Can’t wait to get back up to Assynt for more small stream fishing, so much fun.

On behalf of both me and Jim, thank you so much for guiding us so expertly on Friday.  We really enjoyed the day and learned so much about both the fishing and local area from you.  We also lucked-in with the conditions as the fish were feeding pretty much all day.  Assynt is a magical place and it was a real treat having someone with your experience and knowledge introduce it to us.

We’re still talking about how awesome our experience was – quality banter, great knowledge, supportive and patient teaching, delicious cupcakes (the cherry jam was a delicious touch), and overall just being a warm and lovely person.

All of us enjoyed the fly fishing experience with you very much. You have also kindled the interest within us to take up fly fishing later, let’s see how many of us will end up doing that. We were amazed by your knowledge of the area, plants, birds, water and the rocks. You gave us a really wonderful afternoon which we all thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you so much for that.

I wanted to say how much I enjoyed our trip and your guidance.  I had never fished on lochs so understanding how to approach this was a real education and very enjoyable.   Our second day was extraordinary – the stream was such a surprise – a truly hidden gem ! 

A truly great day in stunning surroundings – with beautiful wild brownies caught and released .Many thanks Stewart for a fabulous day, the instruction and sharing your knowledge of the geology and the fauna. That really made my two weeks in Scotland and has given me confidence to tackle some more waters.

Thank you for the 2 days of guiding. Some very useful lessons, new marks, and tactics, and more than anything else has shown me to have faith in my approach and be patient.

Thanks so much for a wonderful  day’s fishing in Assynt.  As you said, the pools got better and better as we walked upstream, ending in the beautiful cauldron at the top. The hot drink and macaroons were a treat as was the use your Orvis rod, and thanks for all the tackle changes you did throughout the way. I’ll need a lot more practice to tie a knot that quickly!  The waterfall all the end was amazing.

One of my best ever days spent fly fishing, enjoying the wilds of Assynt. Stewart is an incredible ambassador for the region – every email was answered with detail and passion – and then on our day in the hills, his energy and love for the region, wildlife and fishing was relentless. He promised me a day to remember – and he delivered, ten-fold. We tracked a small stream through gorges and rock features. I stopped counting fish when I hit 20. We ended the day with a few hours in a boat on a loch, in the shadow of Suilven mountain. I’ll definitely be back and look forward to my next adventure with Stewart and Geo.
