Hi Murray,

I just wanted to let you know that I had a great time at your course last Saturday April 10th at the Primrose Trout Farm. It was a real treat to be able to learn first hand, about the basics of fly fishing. I would not have known where to start if I hadn't taking this course. It is a must for any beginner that is looking to get into fly fishing. Everything from the knot tying to showing us the different types of rods and flies on the market was very informative. I went back today to Primrose Trout Farm to try my luck at some trout and I landed 6 fish. What can I say, the course was worth every penny and more. 

Thanks Again, Peter A. (Bolton Ontario)

Hi Murray,

Just wanted to thank you for an excellent day yesterday.  The course was extremely informative and fun.  I liked the way you dispelled some of the myths surrounding fly fishing and the equipment required to get started.  I'm afraid that you have got me "hooked", and I look forward to deriving many years of enjoyment from fly fishing, thanks to you and your obvious love of the sport.  I will recommend your course to everyone I hear of that is interested in fly fishing.

Thanks again Murray.

I wanted to thank both you and Murray for a great time on
Sunday.  Barry and I both have a new addiction (although I'm not that great
at it... yet!!).  I had so much fun!!!
I got to see your beautiful craw fish flys that you were speaking about
before... they are pretty neat!!!  Oh... and I had to wear one of those
hats because I forgot to bring one (I thought I looked like Elmer Fudd...
"It's wabbit season!")
Now we're trying to get a hold of some fly rods so that we can start fly
fishing when we're at the cottage!!  I don't think it will happen for a
while though... oh well!!  Hopefully I won't forget everything by the time
I do!!
Thank you so much... !!

Hi:

I wanted to thank you for the terrific day on Saturday.  We all enjoyed the day and greatly benefitted from your training.

I was amazed that after eight hours a couple of teenagers still wanted to keep fishing. 

It is a great pastime and thanks for sharing your skills with us.

Have a great summer.

Sincerely,

Gary

Hello Murray.


Well after many false starts, my daughter Genna and I finally got our day in with instructor Ken. What a totally wonderful day! I can’t say enough about Ken’s knowledge of the sport, his patience in sharing and his genuine friendliness. What a pro!!
Please pass on our kudos to Ken.
Thank you again, we can’t wait to hit the river.
Best regards,
Paul and Genna

Murray,

Thank you for a wonderful day of fishing.  It was a real treat to have such qualified and knowledgeable instructors.  Both Amy and I enjoyed our day and a very excitied about getting out on the water this weekend to test our new skills.

Just a thought for your next course, I think it would be valuable if at the start of the course you took a couple of minutes to introduce your co-instructors.  I eventually learned their names but it would have made it easier if they had been introduced.

Oustide of that I thought the course was excellent, and we look forward to coming back for the intermediate class.

Please pass along our thanks to the other instructors.

Best Regards,

Trevor and Amy

Hello

How do you do Mr. Abbott

A few years back 4 I think my father in-law to be at the time decided he wanted to try his hand at fly fishing. he decided to take your course he asked My brother in-law Larry and myself, Jeff if we like to join him. So sure enough on Saturday morning up to the ponds we go. I had done some fishing with flies previous to this but I just could not get the knots right. I was tired from a shift that that did not end until 4am. so I was not as alert as I would have liked have been.  However  your lesson sticks with me,  I am sure you took years of frustrations of my hands. I have a much better understanding of rods and lines from a few small demonstrations you have also saved me time on decisions. When the time came to pick our rods everyone rushed to pick one some wanted the high value some were afraid of the choice. I was last but pleased that no one took what I am guessing as the lightest you had or close to it 4 or 5wt I think. I fish the UC with 6.5' 2wt very often and bass with 7wt when I can. I would like to thank you not only for sharing you knowledge but opening the doors. 

Have a good day
Jeff

Murray Abbott and staff,

Thank you for a great day at Primrose last Wednesday.  I enjoyed your
non-nonsense approach to the equipment. It was a thrill catching my first
fish on a fly.  I can't wait for bass season so that I can put Suzie's
crayfish to work.

Hi Murray,

I attended your beginner's course on last Saturday and let me tell you again
I enjoyed it very much. Thanks for making these courses available and
affordable because fly fisher have to get started somewhere.

Please send me some information on where fly fisher goes to fish say
anywhere within two hours of driving from Square one in Mississauga.

Thanks,
Mike

Murray;
 
Thanks for the great day. The kids really enjoyed themselves - once they started catching fish! And they really learned a lot about casting. Gary is an excellent casting instructor, and certainly the kids learned a lot from him. He had a magic way of teaching and the kids finally got the hang of how to make their fly in work.
 
Good meeting you and Susie! Good luck in July!
 
Susan
