The region offers an impressive diversity of angling opportunities to the visiting flyfisher. Set in truly magnificent scenery the area boasts a number of quality rivers and streams together with a host of major lakes and still-waters, all great habitats for both brown andr ainbow trout.

Although the vast majority of Ian's guiding is sight fishing on rivers and streams he has, over the years, introduced many to the delights of sight-fishing the clear waters of the region's many still-waters.
Stalking the shallows for cruising browns is most challenging - requiring stealth and careful fly presentation. Many have likened it to a more diverse form of bonefishing.
