Saltwater fly fishing is becoming big in the UK, very big, so much so that St. Mawes, Cornwall is THE place to be from 24th to 27th September for one of the biggest events to hit the game fishing scene for many years: The UK Saltwater Fly Fishing Festival or ‘The Salt’ www.saltwaterflyfishinguk.com

Of all of the UK sea species likely to take a fly the one we all want to connect with is the bass, a true ‘game’ species in every sense of the word – big, bristling, bold, belligerent and brilliant – so get yourself kitted out properly and bag a bass on the fly this summer.
