Bring your group together, let us take care of the arrangements – and your own place could even be free!
Do you organise fishing trips for friends, clients, club members or fellow anglers?
Perhaps you’re a fishing guide with clients who would love to travel with you. Maybe you run a fishing club, syndicate or group. Or perhaps you’re simply the person who somehow ends up organising the annual fishing trip for everyone!
If so, talk to FishTravel before booking your next trip.
We work with fishing lodges and outfitters around the world and can help hosts and group leaders put together exceptional fishing trips – while taking much of the work, responsibility and financial administration away from you.
And, with many destinations, we can negotiate a complimentary place for the host or group leader.
YOU BRING THE GROUP – WE’LL DO THE WORK
Organising an international fishing trip for a group can quickly become a considerable undertaking.
There are dates to coordinate, deposits to collect, balances to chase, questions to answer, travel arrangements to consider and countless small details to organise before anyone has even packed a fishing rod.
That’s where FishTravel comes in.
Bring us your group and we’ll work with you to find the right destination, dates and fishing programme. Once everything is agreed, we can deal directly with each member of your group, handling their bookings, payments and pre-trip information individually.
You remain the host and enjoy the trip with your friends or clients.
We take care of the administration.
YOUR PLACE COULD BE FREE
There can also be a significant financial benefit to organising your trip through FishTravel.
Many of the lodges and outfitters we work with offer a complimentary host place when a full group is booked.
For example, a six-rod lodge might offer six anglers fishing for the cost of five.
As the person bringing the group together, you can choose to take that complimentary place yourself.
Alternatively, you can share the saving amongst everyone travelling, reducing the cost of the trip for the entire group.
If, for example, six rods normally cost £5,000 each and we can secure one complimentary place, that £5,000 benefit could instead be divided between all six anglers.
The precise arrangements vary between destinations, but we will always explore what is available and explain the options clearly.
YOUR CLIENTS AND FRIENDS WILL BE LOOKED AFTER
If you’re introducing your clients, friends or club members to FishTravel, we appreciate that you are also putting your own reputation in our hands.
We take that responsibility seriously.
FishTravel specialises in fishing travel. We understand the destinations we sell, work closely with our lodges and outfitters, and help anglers with the practical details that can make the difference between simply booking some fishing and having a properly organised trip.
Your group will receive the same personal service and attention that we provide to all FishTravel clients.
And importantly, you don’t suddenly become their unpaid travel agent.
Questions about payments, accommodation, transfers, tackle requirements or travel logistics can come to us.
FINANCIAL PROTECTION FOR YOUR GROUP
There is another significant advantage.
FishTravel is an ABTOT bonded travel company, providing financial protection for qualifying bookings in accordance with the applicable regulations and terms of the scheme.
This protection comes at no additional cost to your group.
For a group leader, this is particularly important. Rather than collecting substantial sums of money from friends or clients yourself and forwarding them overseas, individual group members can book and pay through FishTravel.
It provides a professional structure for the trip and valuable reassurance for everyone involved.
NOT JUST FOR PROFESSIONAL HOSTS
You certainly don’t need to be a professional fishing guide to take advantage of this.
We would love to hear from:
- Fishing guides and instructors
- Fishing clubs and associations
- Syndicates
- Tackle shops and businesses
- Fishing content creators
- Groups that travel together regularly
- Individuals who organise trips for friends
If you can bring together a group of anglers who want to travel, there is a good chance we can help.
WHERE COULD YOU GO?
FishTravel offers fishing holidays across the world, from salmon and sea trout fishing in Iceland and Tierra del Fuego, to saltwater fly fishing, tropical destinations and some of the world’s great wilderness fisheries.
Some lodges accommodate four anglers; others six, eight or considerably more. This means we can look for a destination that suits both the size of your group and the type of fishing you want to experience.
We can also discuss destinations where securing the entire lodge, river or fishing programme exclusively for your group is possible.
THINKING ABOUT HOSTING A TRIP?
Even if you only have the beginnings of an idea, get in touch.
Tell us roughly where you’d like to go, when you’d like to travel and how many anglers you think you could bring.
We’ll look at the options, speak with our partners and, where possible, negotiate a host arrangement on your behalf.
You bring the anglers. FishTravel will take exceptional care of them and you might just get to go fishing for free!
