The writing and translation of articles, brochures and websites on sport fishing, from the German or English language into Dutch, requires a large knowledge of sport fishing; knowledge that can not be found at a ‘regular’ translating bureau.

Next to that, Rudy van Duijnhoven does give presentations, workshops and courses on fly casting, fly fishing and fly tying: starters courses, workshops on advanced techniques and on special fly fishing techniques or methods.

Casting at the Moy

On numerous national and international fishing shows Rudy van Duijnhoven has given demonstrations and lectures in fly casting.

As a member of the Board of Governors of the European Fly Fishing Association (EFFA), Rudy will, together with Sepp Fuchs, Bas de Bruin, Günter Feuerstein and others, examine people that want to do the exams for the EFFA Fly Casting Instructor Program. People that do give instruction already for their fly fishing club for instance, can voluntary take part in this program and if they do pass the exam successfully, call themselves Basic Fly Casting Instructor or – one step higher – Master Fly Casting Instructor. On the page with links you can find a reference to this program, which is set up to raise the level of fly casting instruction in Europe.
