Description
Sundowner Adventures presents adults & children with an opportunity to try a new adventure activity in a safe and secure environment. This is a great way to learn all about the skills and techniques to enjoy fly fishing. It's a fun adventure for individuals, couples and families.
Fly-fishing is fun, clean (no grubby bait!) outdoor adventure in the open air. It is good exercise but you don't a high fitness level. The equipment and flies are available for hire, however you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer.
The Private clinic is for individuals or small groups between one to four people. We cover from novice to intermediate. Experienced guides will tailor-make the clinic and patiently teach you the skills required to match your skill level. We cover theory and practical fishing guidance. The teaching is done in a fun and easy to understand manner. We adhere to strict COVID protocols with sanitizing of hands, rental fishing equipment and social distancing. Its outdoors in the open air. Younger children are welcome to attend a Private lesson, however we encourage one or more parents to participate.
There will be a short period at the end of the lesson where guests will have an opportunity to fish. We believe in keeping the sport environmentally friendly so all fish caught must be released (And we teach guests the proper techniques required for correctly releasing the fish so that they do not get injured). The dams at Waterfall Equestrian Estate have Bass, Carp, Kurper and Cat fish.
Lesson are hosted at Waterfall Equestrian Estate on week days and weekends. Dates and times are flexible. Advance-booking is required.

Loved the fly fishing introduction that we did with Sundowner at Kloofzicht Lodge & Spa with my boys. A perfect way to spend the day fishing. Great environment and also loved learning from the knowledgeable staff there. Perfect place to learn and to enjoy something special with my boys too.
