Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Hey Rosie,
Thank you for your review. Really helps my business.
It was great to meet you and you deserved your fish as well. I have been looking for the photo but can’t locate it. Please email photo if you got one.
Tight lines and hope you catch a few more now.

Mick is a great teacher!
We had a mixed group of four fishers, some who had never fished before. Mick had everyone casting well enough to try a variety of techniques in no time!
He was knowledgeable about flies that would work, and even though the ponds were quiet, we caught fish!
Even though we booked late, Mick worked with us to find a time that worked. He was well organized and ready for us when we arrived.
We had a great half day fishing! Would highly recommend Mick!!

Hey Gerry.
Thank you for an excellent review. I had a great time fishing with you all and it’s always good to see a few fish in the net. Everybody really done well with the fly rod.

Hey Gill,
Thank you for an excellent review. It was pleasure to meet you all and spend some time on the Loch on Jim’s special day. It was almost memorable if the massive Trout stayed on Jim’s line. Am sure he has the fly fishing bug now.

'Mick' was our guide and he was excellent! A true Scottish historian and expert. It was a cold and windy and rainy day and he brought extra jackets for us and we had an excellent time fishing and talking about Scottish traditions. Taught us about rabbits, falcons, and maggots all while witnessing the beautiful tree lined Loch nearby Edinburgh.

My son and husband had a fantastic experience and day with Mik.
Both were total beginners and Mik was patient and knowledgeable. He was able to keep my 10 year old engaged and interested the whole 4 hours in the cold and snow. He has come away excited to go fishing again.
Well planned. Great communication and service. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
Thanks Mik!

Thank you very much for your review. The lads were great to fish with and they had patience plenty as well. Very glad to see them land a fish each and I hope they carry on fishing this year. David picked up the fly casting very quickly and am sure will be able to show Dawson how to cast in the future. Tight lines.

AMAZING experience, we have wanted to try fishing for such a long time and this was the perfect intro. Mik was so knowledgable and taught us everything we needed to know and caught 3 fish.
It was amazing value for money and he spent so much time with us showing us different styles and techniques. I’d recommend this to anyone even if you don’t have a big interest in fishing it is a great day out.

Pleasant day on a small loch surrounded by beautiful scenery. Mik collected me from the mayhem of Edinburgh traffic for the fishing excursion. I’m not much of a FLY fisherwoman, but he was very patient and made sure I caught plenty of rainbows. He’s good company and knows what he’s doing. I only had a day, but he does longer fishing trips.

Thank you for an excellent review of your time fishing with us. You were very good at the fly fishing and I hope you continue to fly fish back home. The Trout was a bonus on the day and it was a pleasure to swap our fishing stories.
Many thanks.

Thank you for an excellent review of your fishing experience. It was a pleasure to meet you both and to show you my secret fishing spot. It was great to see you both land fish there and I was as excited as you both to see the fish before we caught them. I will be here the next time you head North.
