An Itinerary Guide
- Welcome and introductions, followed by a health & safety briefing (risk assessments are completed for each session).
- Discuss the different species of fish that we will be catching; the equipment and bait that you will be using and most importantly tuning your brain into thinking how fish behave and feed in the water.
- Walk from the fishing lodge via several lakes towards our fishing peg (a numbered location where anglers fish from). A big part of being a successful angler is observation; watching other anglers and the angling techniques they are successfully using, along with any fish movements in the water. Angling is as much about using your brain as it is about physical control of a fishing rod.
- All the fishing tackle required for your bespoke session will be prepared and ready to use. We will look in detail at the terminal tackle components and bait preparation, breaking down the technical talk into digestible chunks. Everybody is an individual, with differing learning curves and desire for knowledge. Manchester Angler recognizes this, hence why each and every bespoke session has no specific coaching plan. I work with the topic that wishes to be learnt and then fuse this into how the fish are feeding along with fishing conditions presented by the weather - flexibility is the key to being a successful angler.
- The fishing session will be directed towards catching the larger hard fighting Carp that are prolifically stocked within the Partridge Lakes complex. We will build up a swim to encourage fish to feed freely. This usually involves feeding two swims; plan A being the angling technique you wish develop and plan B is usually a back up just in case the fish are not playing ball. I have had some of my most interesting and satisfying fishing sessions whilst working out a plan C to catch fish. Remember if it was all too easy then angling would just be called catching!
- As the session concludes you will have gained confidence in a new method whilst also picking up invaluable watercraft skills.
Activity Q & A's
1:1 or Group Coaching? All of Manchester Angler coaching sessions are 1:1. However, I am happy for 'Bespoke Fishing Sessions' to be shared between two children / adults. I must highlight that only one fishing rod will be used at any one time; therefore whilst one is fishing the other participant will be watching!
Suitability? For anybody aged 10 years upwards who has already enjoyed an 'Introduction to Fishing' session and wishes to learn a new fishing technique.
PLEASE NOTE: Children between the age of 10 and 16 Must be accompanied by a carer or parent. Can people with physical restrictions or learning difficulties take part in this activity?
I strive to make fishing available to EVERYONE. Therefore if parents or carers wish to contact me to discuss how we can tailor the activity to facilitate the needs of a specific condition then please do so.
I'm proud to state that Manchester Angler will do its utmost to ensure our services are accessible to all members of our community.
Are spectators allowed? I encourage friends and family to enjoy angling with the participant during the coaching session - However I only allow a MAXIMUM OF ONE SPECTATOR during 'Bespoke Fishing' packages! There will be a comfortable chair available for the spectator.
What is included within the package?
We use high quality balanced fishing equipment to enhance the enjoyment of hooking and playing a hooked fish. All the fishing bait is supplied along with a fishing permit and rod license. To ensure you do not dehydrate after catching large hard fighting fish there is cool bottled water and fruit (apple & banana) available during the session.
What happens if the weather is poor?
'Bespoke Fishing Sessions' will only be cancelled and rescheduled in the worst of conditions; for example heavy rain or very strong winds. Fishing is an outdoor hobby so therefore light rain or rain showers comes with the territory. However, I don't want your fishing experience to be a wet and miserable one. Therefore a gazebo is set up adjacent to the fishing peg to provide shelter from our unpredictable weather.
What do you need to bring with you?
Please bring along all of the great British Summer basics:
Please ensure you have adequate warm outdoor clothing during the cooler months of April, September, October & November. Use multiple layers rather than just one thick coat.
Do not hesitate to ask me when booking a session if you are unsure what clothing to wear during any of the fishing activities.

What do you need to bring with you?
Please bring along all of the great British Summer basics:
- A baseball cap or other peaked or rimmed sun hat.
- Sun block, the Summer sun rays can be strong and damaging.
- A water proof coat!
- A hoodie, sweatshirt or fleece jacket as the wind chill by the waterside can be much cooler than the air temperature in a sheltered sunny spot.
- Sensible footwear; no need for wellington boots but please no flip flops or open toe shoes - thank you.
Please ensure you have adequate warm outdoor clothing during the cooler months of April, September, October & November. Use multiple layers rather than just one thick coat.
Do not hesitate to ask me when booking a session if you are unsure what clothing to wear during any of the fishing activities.
