Customised River Maps for Lodges or anglers:
As a guide and angler I know how well received is a detailed map of the fishery, so that you know where you are, and can plan and map out your day’s fishing, hopefully to that fish or pool of a lifetime. One of the most frequent questions I am asked when guiding is... ‘Where we are going?’. As an angler we want to know about the surroundings, the watershed, the pools..
A good way to impress your guests early on is to present them with a special beat map, to show them clearly the countryside/geography around, the fishing beats, access, roads, the lodge etc. Or it can be more simple and less detailed regarding the water system, geography etc.
Maps can be embellished with iconographic images of the place , fishing scenes, views of the river, local flies, animals, birds, fish etc., so that besides the practical services, the map would enhance the walls of your lodge and be a beautiful as well as useful work of art. |

Here is an example of individual beat maps done for The Norwegian Fly Fisher`s Club on the Gaula river in Norway, so that guests can have the correct orientation on access, parking areas, the limits of the beats etc |

The support can be done on prepared linen laid over plywood with a frame on the back and smooth surface. It is all done by me. Alternatively it could also be done on high quality paper free of acid, which is long lasting also. (These works will not fade over time like so much commercially done art).
The size would depend upon your needs, elements and composition. The time for delivery would be fixed after the final composition and price is agreed.
The prices also depend on the size, composition, whether it is to be in full colour or not, or by the number of maps in the case of detailed beat maps etc.
