Join us at the GAC 2025 Autumn Open Weekend for a packed schedule of casting demonstrations and expert tuition.
Throughout the weekend, world record holders, SGAIC instructors, and AAPGAI masters will be sharing their knowledge on our casting pool.
They will also be available in-store to answer questions and help anglers of all ages and abilities improve their skills.
Look out for familiar names including Hywel Morgan, Stevie Reid, Steve Peterson, Jim Fearn, Jim Curry, and Andy Murray,
all ready to help you get the most from your tackle.
Why Casting Demos Are Worth Attending
There is no better way to test a new rod or see the latest technology in action than under the guidance of highly qualified instructors.
These experts work directly with the brands developing today’s cutting-edge fly rods,

You will get the chance to cast with their gear, ask questions, and get honest advice before making a choice.
