    Hi,
    I do a lot of sea angling, mostly light lure fishing using soft plastics and small hard lures.

    I've recently acquired a fly rod set up and was wondering if anybody can advise on where I could get fly casting lessons to get me going.
    I'm based in Dublin 12, Perrystown and have been up to some local grassy patches but I'm struggling on my own. (Despite loads of youtube research!)

    I don't have a huge budget but if anyone could give me a steer I would very much appreciate it.
    Colm

    Hi

    Here's One fishery I think it's the bet fishery in Dublin, Herd good things, http://www.courtlough.ie/trout-fishing/ At the end of the pages it's 50 Euro, For the Lesson then after that, you Can practice for the rest of the day and catch a trout, There's Rainbows and meaby even Brownies, The 50 euro is good, then after the lesson you can fish! Also you can keep 1 fish, Trust me that it would be worth that amount of money!

    thanks

    Make sure you go with someone who is GAIA or APGAI qualified , pretty sure the chap out in Courtlough is, so that is a good option.

    He is indeed... http://fishinginireland.info/guides/dublin.htm
