The Story

Explore the unique waters of South West England with Rodney Wevill of Rodders On The Fly Guide Service, located in the heart of the Westcountry. Rodders On The Fly Guide Service’s mission is to help anglers improve their fishing skills, from novice to experienced levels, and send them home with a great fly fishing experience that enables them to get more out of their future fishing.

Rodney is a Level 2 licenced angling coach who has been fly fishing for 45 years and has experience with varied saltwater and freshwater species. In the last 10 years, he’s spent much of his time winter pike fishing and early-season brown trout loch–style bank fishing. Fly tying also plays a huge part in his life. After so many years of fly fishing, Rodney is proud to be an Orvis-Endorsed guide and have the opportunity to share his knowledge and give back to the sport he loves so deeply.
