Association of Advanced Professional Game Angling Instructors
A.A.P.G.A.I ensures that its members are able to offer the best informed advice and pass on their skills to customers wishing to learn fly fishing and other game fishing techniques by a rigorous entrance examination process covering the teaching and diagnostic skills required to deliver first class tuition.
The Association was formed in 2003 and represents the majority of top class Game Angling and Fly Fishing instructors in the British Isles, all of whom hold Advanced Professional Instructors qualifications.
The Association's members are expected to attend Continuing Professional Development (CPD) events featuring new techniques, products and develoments in the sphere of Game Angling on a half yearly basis. Members are actively involved teaching Fly Fishing skills at all levels from children and beginners, to the highest achievable instructor grades for all types of Freshwater and Saltwater Game Fish species.
The Association has now become international with instructors from all parts of the world coming to the U.K to take the assesments and become members. This makes the Professional Developments events a major highlight as new ideas and techniques are shared by everyone within the Association.
