I was absolutely thrilled to discover that I have won this award. I began Kingfisher Guides as an enjoyable way to share my love for fishing, teach fly casting, and connect with many wonderful people. It has truly been a fantastic experience meeting individuals from around the globe and forming genuine friendships with those who return each year. I want to express my gratitude to everyone who has supported me along the journey and to the amazing guests who have left reviews. I truly appreciate it. I never imagined that a small company offering fishing trips could rank in the top 10% of attractions worldwide!


Anyway enough of awards what's been going on with the fishing. Well as you know July has been very hot and water temperatures far too hot for fishing! So for a couple of weeks I did not fish at all and then the only fishing was very early morning or late evening until temperatures started to drop. I did however have some great session teaching people to cast which is always great fun. Now we are into August I am expecting the wind and the rain to return which is great for the fishing maybe not so much me!


A few pictures below from some of the outing. Don't forget to keep up to date by following me on instagram or Facebook.

I'm always adding new flies and products to the store if you fancy a quick look click the link below.


May has been one of the best I can remember with loads of big fish caught, new friends made and just a real good time on the water. Remember fishing isn't just about catching fish its about being there and immersing your self in the environment. Relaxing and taking yourself away from every day life is so important and fishing in my opinion ticks all the boxes.



Really has been an amazing few weeks I'm going to let the pictures talk for them selves. If you would like to book or want any information just please get in touch.





As usual I have been tying all sorts of flies and I will get them on the shop as soon as I'm not out fishing !!!

So, every year we all get excited about the new season, and this year was no exception. With plenty of dates booked in the diary, I couldn't wait, and March has not disappointed. Been so busy this is the first opportunity to get some pictures on the blog.

What can I say it was wild and windy but the fish didn't mind! Mike and Mason fished hard and were rewarded with some beautiful Trout.



Scott from Florida USA first time in Scotland wanted to catch a Brown trout!. He managed his first Scottish Pike as well.




I've been out too! Ha


Lots of new stuff happening. I've started a regular Friday morning Casting lessons and practice and it's been great. Normally meet around 8am and finish 11.30ish covering all aspects of over head casting and Spey casting with single handed rods. If you're interested please get in touch.
