Kind words from some of my very happy customers! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Really enjoyed it. Even silly little things you’ve showed me today will make a big difference to my fishing and how you teach felt really enjoyable but informal.<\/strong> \u2013 James Bucknell<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had a fabulous day out, using the pole for the first time on moving water. Time flew by, no question was too stupid and all answered kindly and thoroughly. Whoever said \u201cdon’t meet your heroes\u201d has obviously not met you. Thank you very much again.<\/strong> \u2013 John Button<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A brilliant day out with Jon. Jon showed me how to keep fish coming on all lines, especially the margins while significantly improving my short feeder casting and pole feeding techniques. Jon’s relaxed and informative approach made the day a real pleasure to be on the bank. Days like these are a ‘must’ if you are looking to fast-track your angling skills!<\/strong> \u2013 Dave Portas<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks for such an excellent day. Great tips and knowledge along with an excellent way of putting it across. Felt so at ease and comfortable with your coaching. Would highly recommend to anyone novice or expert. Would definitely book again without hesitation!<\/strong> \u2013 Mathew Blackmoor<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What a brilliant day I had. Learnt loads and realised how the small things can make so much difference and I guess is the difference between winning and being an also ran!<\/strong> \u2013 Jon Whitehead<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Anyone thinking of having a days fishing with Jon… don’t think about it… do it! The session I had was an eye opener to me. I have fished Bishops Bowl for five years and never caught as many fish as I caught after Jon’s tuition. Jon showed me that even 1 day a week anglers like myself could catch and compete in matches. So guys an gals if you want to improve your fishing get in touch with Jon Arthur. He will improve your angling so much!<\/strong> \u2013 Steve James<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I recently took my fishing-mad grandson to the fantastic Tunnel Barn Farm for an all-day coaching session with the 2020 Daiwa Pole Masters Champion and all-round angler\/journalist Jon Arthur. Jon is a friendly, informative character, which puts his students at ease. The session is fully inclusive of the method of tackling a commercial fishery instructing on; setup, strategy, catching and etiquette. Despite the cold the session flew by and left both my grandson and I with a renewed passion to get out on the bank again and start catching. My grandson ended up with a net of fish that would have put him in 3rd\u00a0place in a match taking place on a neighbouring pool. If you have ever played golf you will know that a Pro can reset your game; it\u2019s exactly the same with fishing. Jon charges a reasonable rate for a lot of knowledge and it is worth it to get an insight into the mindset of one of the UK’s premier anglers. <\/strong> \u2013 Andy Bashford<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The two days have taught me so much and definitely highlighted areas that I really need to work on. Your patience and professionalism meant that I never felt I couldn\u2019t ask questions or for guidance. I\u2019d certainly recommend a days coaching with you. <\/strong> \u2013 James Simpson<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had a fantastic day out with Jon pole fishing. He is truly a really all round nice guy who knows his fishing! I would highly recommend him to anyone.<\/strong> \u2013 Matt Hall<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

An awesome day. Very highly recommend Jon. Great day, great coaching, fantastic venue and fab pictures. Thanks again Jon, best gift ever!<\/strong> \u2013 Andy & Lyn Williams<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Brilliant day, learnt loads, highly recommend to anyone thinking about a day with Jon. I have already booked more as his knowledge is invaluable.<\/strong> \u2013 Craig Wood<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just like to say again a big thanks to Jon, I have learnt so much on the day that I had to write it all down so I can keep going over everything! I was shown so much and a lot of fine tuning was made by Jon to make it a brilliant days fishing. I would highly recommend a days coaching with Jon and you will definitely get your money’s worth. Thanks again to a great guy Jon Arthur<\/strong> \u2013 Ray England<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had a brilliant day and I know it will definitely put more fish in my net. Jon\u2019s a fantastic coach and would improve anyone\u2019s angling ability. Highly recommended.<\/strong> \u2013 Andy Kirtley<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A special thanks to you Jon for your great coaching skills. I would recommend to anyone who feels the need for some coaching to book with yourself a top angler and person!<\/strong> \u2013 Dave Sexton<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was a very thought provoking and enjoyable day. The little tweaks are invaluable. Put them to use on Sunday and won a small 20 peg knock up with 120lb!<\/strong> \u2013 Neil Jeacock<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It really is a great alternative to pants and smellies for your birthday treat! A great day and learnt a lot from a top guy. No secrets and great to learn new skills at my age. Highly recommended!<\/strong> \u2013 Dave Roberts<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thankyou for a great days fishing. The coaching was superb as we covered a lot in one day and the venue was ideal. Sam is now keen to acquire his own fishing tackle to continue his fishing experience!<\/strong> \u2013 Barrie & Sam Hicks<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Your professional attitude and calm demeanor made the day even more enjoyable as you put me at ease straight away. I will take all those little tips and tricks with me in my future fishing adventures and they will I’m sure get me those extra pounds at the weigh in.<\/strong> \u2013 Steve Tayler<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had the most fantastic days fishing I could have ever wished for and I can\u2019t wait to book you next year for another session. I tried to pick your angling brain with questions all day long and not once did I feel you were holding anything back. You come over extremely well on your YouTube clips and you came across very well on a one to one session too. Many thanks for all the tips and advice and I can\u2019t wait to put it into practice soon.
\nMany thanks for the time you took and all the things you taught me, I\u2019ll never forget.<\/strong> \u2013 Mick Goff<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The whole day from start to finish was brilliant. Talking through swims, rigs, setup, shotting, hooks, how and when to feed. The fishing was a bonus and the icing on the cake was unbelievable photos don’t lie. What a venue. The photo with the fish accounted for about 1\/3 of the days catch!<\/strong> \u2013 Gordon Hitchen<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Had a fantastic day. Learnt so much and had a great laugh doing it.<\/strong> \u2013 Chris Maddox<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Last three matches I\u2019ve been in I\u2019ve had a 3rd, 1st and 2nd. Really improved my fishing since our training sessions. Cheers pal! <\/strong> \u2013 Matthew Stephenson<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just wanted to say thank you again. Really enjoyed ourselves and learnt a lot. Can\u2019t wait for the next time now!<\/strong> \u2013 Craig Griffiths<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks for a fantastic day Jon. Thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt plenty!\u00a0<\/strong>I\u2019d recommend Jon to anyone, no matter your fishing ability!<\/strong> \u2013 Aaron Cook<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks again for a great day. Can’t put into words how good it is to be comfortable holding 13m.<\/strong> \u2013 Clive Rainbird<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Harry had the best day and so did his dad. Photos are fab! Perfect birthday present. Highly recommend and Harry took on board what you showed him and came 3rd in a club match on Sunday!<\/strong> \u2013 Julie Franklin<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
