Editors Note:
I have to admit - becoming a coach for the NFA is one of the best things I have ever done.
I've learnt new techniques and procedures, I've met some wonderful people and visited some great fisheries.
You get proper training and guidance - the tutors are all anglers and they are on your side, they will give you all the help you need to qualify for the certificate. There's no catches or trick questions - if you know your angling - this could be for you. It can be hard work but with a little determination you shouldn't have a problem.
Give Glyn Williams a call - he's a down-to-earth angler with a lot of common sense, you won't regret it.
