Jimmy Devoy - a lifetime fishing on the Usk

Benefit from a true fisherman. What Jimmy does not know about fishing on the Usk, is not worth knowing.

Jimmy Devoy is an institution at Gliffaes, a day in his company will be remembered for a long time. Whether you are a beginner looking to learn how to cast and to understand about fly life or a proficient fisherman who would like some local knowledge then Jimmy is your man.

Jimmy has fished at Gliffaes for over ten years and is an instinctive fisherman. He has fished for trout & salmon for the past fifty years, ties his own flies and can provide tackle and waders if required.

All in a morning's work for Jimmy.

Jimmy keeps his own diary and if you would like his services then please call him, making sure you have booked a fishing beat at the hotel first. Jimmy can be contacted on 01873 853 531.

A word of warning: Jimmy gets booked up very quickly during the fishing season.

    Do you provide lessons for 2 to 3 hours? I started fishing last year on reservoirs and now want some tips on how to fish rivers. I intend staying at the hotel on the 9/10th June. If you do provide a short course of this nature, do you have availability on these days?

    Many thanks
