Saltwater Fly Fishing Festival 2025
DATES:
Friday 27th June – Sunday 29th June 2025
TICKETS:
Competitor Ticket
Our Competitor Ticket allows anglers to compete for some amazing competition prizes. Competition fishing times begin on Friday afternoon, running late into the evenings and starting early on Saturday and Sunday mornings. This will give all our competitors even more time to be able to net a prize-winning catch. Includes entry to the Saturday evening social.
Festival Ticket
For those who would prefer to come and improve their skills rather than focus on competing with their fellow anglers, we have our Festival Ticket. This ticket allows entry to the festival on Friday, Saturday and Sunday where anglers can partake in our educational workshops, casting clinics and guided beach workshops with professional fishing guides. Includes entry to the Saturday evening social.
Youth Ticket
We want to encourage and foster the next generation of saltwater fly fishing anglers so, once again, we would like to welcome anglers under the age of 18 to join us at the Festival. In a slight change to our 2024 competition, youth anglers have the choice whether to compete on Saturday, Sunday, or across both days, and includes entry to our Saturday evening social.
Our youth competitors will be competing for the Youth Competition Longest Catch prize, but are also eligible to enter the main Festival Competition on Saturday and Sunday. Prize giving for the Youth Competition will take place on Sunday afternoon, alongside the prize giving for the Festival Competition.
We understand that the event takes place during school term, however, if for any reason the youth angler is not at school, they are welcome to join the Festival activities on Friday 27th June, but will not be able to register any catches toward the Youth Competition on that day.
Youth anglers must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times and should be capable of fishing without external assistance in order to enter.
Ticket exclusions: Accommodation and all transport (including during the event) are not included in the price of your ticket.
