Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Brian McGlashan and I have been fishing for over 40 years. Over 20 years ago I decided I wanted to be a Flyfishing\/Casting Instructor. After passing a couple of UK Based Instructor Assessments, I Joined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersinternational.org\/\"> https:\/\/www.flyfishersinternational.org\/<\/a> and passed their two highest qualifications in Single (MCI) and Double Handed casting (THCI). I was also invited onto the Casting Board of Governors. I then spent 5 Years training on the Examiners development pathway and I am now a Level Three Examiner on their Assessor Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have fished throughout the UK and Europe, for Trout, Salmon and Grayling. The lochs, loughs, still-waters, reservoirs and rivers all bring their unique challenges which is where experience and technique play an enormous part in having a successful and enjoyable day\u2019s fishing. I use Up-to date Tackle from some of the Leading Manufacturers in the World. Tackle Advice freely Given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I look forward to welcoming you on a fishing trip in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello.
