Spring has finally arrived in Scotland. The weather in Edinburgh today is beautiful – sunny and warm. I have just come back to the office after going out for a coffee in in a nearby cafĂ©. This is my favourite time to sit and enjoy a small cigar and think out River & Green and how I can continue to improve the service we offer.
I have had an idea and I would love to know what people think about it. The idea is to combine cycling tours of Scotland with fly-fishing. This could be a completely new and exciting type of holiday which no other company could offer.
Guests would be collected from Edinburgh airport and taken to their first hotel or B&B. We would provide top quality bicycles and a detailed rote map and, if requested, we could also provide a full-time guide. Guests would also be equipped with a compact set of high quality fly-fishing gear – like a Hardy Smuggler rod, reel and selection of flies. Then, the guests set off on their tour and rest from the cycling at chosen places to fish for Scotland’s beautiful wild brown trout. Each day you would spend the night at pre-arranged accommodation.
We could tailor any tour to suit the particular requirements of any client group. You would really experience the natural beauty of Scotland and have the opportunity to fish in wild and remote parts of the country.
What do you think? Is this something which you think would appeal to people? I would be most grateful to receive any comments; ian@river-green.com
