CLIENTS FEEDBACK

A brief note to say thanks for putting me in touch with Ivor through various emails earlier this month.  I took my two boys down for a day with Ivor at Marsh Farm in Surrey and had a really great day. I have never even tied a hook before but within a couple of hours all three of us were catching some really good fish, particularly Jack our youngest who obviously got a lucky peg !.......it made his day.  For info I attach a diary entry that Jack has kept for a school project and couple of photos from the day.   I can’t recommend Ivor highly enough, his enthusiasm is infectious and patience unbelievable for getting beginners started, just what we needed.  Thanks again for your help, we are hooked.  
Kind regards, Pete.


Tuesday August 7th

 

Today Dad took Tom and I to learn how to fish. We were taught by Ivor Hughes at a fishery called Marsh Farm in Surrey.

We have never fished before and Ivor taught us how to set up our poles and then use a plumb to test the depth of the water around where we sitting. Although we wanted to start fishing straight away Ivor explained that this is one of the most important things to do if you want to understand where the fish are likely to be.
We began fishing with maggots and straight away caught some small fish but then used some round pellet bait. Straight away we all started catching much bigger fish.
Ivor said he couldn’t believe the fish I caught, my brother said it was lucky but I said it was skill !
I caught 4 good Tench, 4 Cruscian and 1 Common Carp as well as lots of smaller fish. My Dad and Tom also caught lots of fish but mine were the biggest.
Ivor was a really good teacher and didn’t go mad when I accidentally left my pole in the water with bait on when I went to see my Dad, a fish came and pulled it in to the water ! Ivor used another rod to bring it back in.
After we finished Dad bought us all new poles and equipment from Mick in the shop, he showed us all the things we needed and Ivor set them up for us.
I really enjoyed myself and now we can all go fishing together during the rest of the holidays.


Winter fishing.

Hi Ivor,

 
I would like to thank you for the time you spent with Ryan yesterday on such a cold day,
I didn't think that i was going to be able to help Ryan until you helped him for me.

Even when you were there to fish yourself you gave up your time to help, a massive thankyou is deserved.
 Ryan has come away so happy that he has learnt to cast, strike, tie hooks,
and was not put off when he caught the small Perch and small Roach compared to what he caught before.
 
Many Thanks
Gary (the ice cold dad still thoring out)

Hi Ivor,
Once again i would like to thank you for another good day, Ryan has not stopped talking about it.All your help is making Ryan and myself actually think about fishing rather than just fish if that makes sense?
Attached a couple of photos for you to take a look at and maybe add them to your own site for other starters to see how well you know about fishing and how to get begginers hooked.
Hope to see you soon at the lakes
Gary
