PAA Coach Qualification
When I first seriously considered teaching and coaching I wanted to be sure I would do it right. I’m passionate about fishing and the future of this awesome sport, so when I made the decision to pass on my knowledge I wanted to do it properly. I want to offer my clients the best. I don’t just want to be paid for my time, I want to be sure I can give as much back as possible. To be sure I could do this I spent two weeks in the classroom on the PAA (Professional Anglers Association) level 2 course, – Was it worth it? What did I learn? Yes it was worth it and I learned how to teach in a variety of ways.
I’ve also supported and participated in charity and children’s fishing events, which has earned me a reputation for being a down-to-earth, fun and dedicated angler. I’m a people person with a hands-on approach. This course taught me an awareness of skills that complement my approach to teaching.
On the technical side I’m now confident with risk assessment and first aid. Also to my credit and by far the most important, I have full Public Liability insurance. This is a must if tutoring, especially with children, elderly or disabled people, and let’s be honest everybody in-between!
For those of you checking out Tutorials – check your tutor has insurance, Its as important to the angler as an unhooking mat is to the fish.
On a tutorial I can teach you: how to choose the right tackle, rig construction, knots, the whys and wherefores of the application of different baits, casting and playing a fish, spodding, plumbing and marker techniques, which swims to pick and how to get the best from a swim and your surroundings. Let me share with you the secrets of targeting a large fish or how to get the best from a day session.
