Fly fishing offers an immersive experience with nature. You can enjoy it at your own level and pace: from patiently stalking a chalk stream trout during the mayfly hatch to the thrill of standing waist-deep mid-river playing your first salmon.

Catering for beginners to experienced anglers, Blue Zulu Fly Fishing can introduce you to the joys of fly fishing or help improve and refine your existing technique and skills.

Based in the Cotswolds, we offer casting lessons, guiding and instruction on the trout streams of Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and Berkshire, salmon fishing on the Wye and Usk and bespoke hand-tied fly collections. Gift vouchers available.
