I especially enjoy working with children and inexperienced fishermen. I teach them how to treat the fish they catch with respect, induce minimal harm while handling it, and return it to the water unscathed. The nature of these expeditions is purely educational, so ethical conduct is paramount. I am very adaptive and take pride in my ability to impart knowledge in a calm and focused manner and in a digestible format.

I was inspired by one of my heroes, Charles Jardine, and his Fishing for Schools project. Let`s give the young generation a chance to do something interesting and thrilling apart from swiping on their phones and playing computer games. There is a real world out there, and it is magnificent! It’s much better than anything ever seen on a screen.

Despite all the difficulties last year (2021), I organized a fly fishing school and other outdoor activities, which took 5 days. Boys and girls from 11th grade had their chance to learn to cast a fly rod to catch rainbow trout in a lake and wild brown trout in a river. There was also daily rafting, climbing, and foraging for mushroom activities. It was an intensive week, and everyone learned something new and sensational.

I also organized or participated in a few more fly fishing schools for kids, bringing me positivity and joy.

I will most certainly continue to organize and participate in future fly fishing school projects. Follow this webpage for Mankov Fly Fishing School dates and details in future years.

If you want to take your kids out in nature to learn essentials about rivers and lakes, their inhabitants, and how to fly fish, you are on the right page. Please do not hesitate to contact me to plan an adventurous day out for yourself and your children or to sign them up for the next school.

Participation in courses, guidings or fly fishing trips offered or managed by Mankov Fly Fishing LTD is at your own risk. We disclaim liability for property damage or injuries of any kind which are caused by participants.

After registering for a course half of the charge fee has to be transferred to one of our accounts. By doing this the registration is made definite. The rest of the course fee has to be paid at least four weeks before the course starts. If a participant cannot take part the advance will only be paid back if he cancels the course not later than four weeks before the event takes place.

Mankov Fly Fishing LTD reserves the right to cancel or to move any courses at any time without specifying the reasons. If a course is canceled all the pre-paid money will be paid back. Mankov Fly Fishing LTD is not liable for any other costs or circumstances connected with the cancellation or the change of date of a course.

Each participant has to wear an eye protection device (sunglasses, optical glasses, or equivalent) during the course.

Filming or photographing during the course disturbs the learning progress. Therefore participants are not allowed to take pictures or film during the course (except group pictures at the end).

During the course, the participants might be filmed from time to time for making a later video analysis possible. By attending a course of Mankov Fly Fishing LTD the participant agrees to allow the owner of Mankov Fly Fishing LTD to use this video material for future teaching purposes or video productions.

By transferring the advance or paying the whole course fee the participant agrees to the general business conditions of the Mankov Fly Fishing and puts them into action against him.
