A Lifelong Passion for Fishing
From a young age, I was captivated by the art of fishing—mastering intricate knots blindfolded and trying my hand at fly fishing by 14. Even as I navigated secondary school and trained as a chef in Appenzell, my love for fishing never faded. After my culinary career, I discovered joy in bartending and connecting with people, but it also marked the start of a deeper personal quest.

At the Crossroads: Passion vs. Profession
In 2015, armed with a vocational high school diploma and culinary apprenticeship, I embarked on hotel management studies. A life-changing summer internship in 2017 at a Canadian fishing lodge, where I served as a “Lodge Assistant Manager,” deepened my passion for angling. Returning to Switzerland, I faced a pivotal question: What path should I take? Doubts about my studies grew, and I knew I needed a change.

Answering the Call of the Wild
By spring 2020, as I completed my studies and the COVID-19 lockdown unfolded, I found myself with endless hours to devote to my true love—fly fishing. I realized I didn’t just want to fish; I wanted to share my knowledge and inspire others. This epiphany led me to guide fellow enthusiasts into nature, blending my culinary skills with unforgettable outdoor experiences. Soon after, FLYTASTIC was born—a free website where I began documenting my adventures and insights.

From Hobby to Career: The Birth of FLYTASTIC
In the summer of 2021, I took the leap and turned my passion into my profession. Through workshops, I now teach fly fishing techniques, share my deep understanding of aquatic ecosystems, and instill a profound respect for nature. My mission? To inspire fellow anglers and bring joy to their fishing journeys. After all, life’s too short not to do what you love—and for me, that’s fly fishing.

  • Custom Rod Building – Craft your perfect fly rod with expert guidance.
  • Fly Presentation Mastery – Learn the art of the perfect cast and presentation.

De Rîves en Dérives: A Lifelong Passion for Fly Fishing in France’s Wild Rivers

John-Paul Duff

“De Rîves en Dérives: A Lifelong Passion for Fly Fishing in France’s Wild Rivers”

A Childhood Shaped by Water and Wisdom

De Rîves en Dérives

Nicolas’s deep connection to fishing began in his earliest years—not through the traditional lineage of fathers or grandfathers, but through the gentle guidance of his mother and grandmother. The rivers of Hérault and Tarn became his first classrooms, where he learned the delicate art of angling. Decades later, his grandmother’s wisdom still lingers in his mind as he refines his craft across diverse fishing techniques.

Fly Fishing: More Than a Hobby, a Way of Life
For Nicolas, fly fishing transcends mere recreation—it’s a philosophy. Years of dedication have honed his mastery, particularly in dry fly fishing, where patience and precision meet artistry. His true joy lies in decoding nature’s rhythms: studying insect hatches, predicting fish behavior, and unraveling how weather and terrain shape each cast.

From Passion to Profession: Guiding in Hérault
Two childhood loves—nature and sport—propelled Nicolas’s journey. After a foundation in science, he pursued social careers and sports management, culminating in a degree in Outdoor Activities Management. Yet, his heart yearned to share his expertise, leading him to a new calling: guiding others through the rivers he cherishes.

Turning Vision into Reality
To bridge his passion with purpose, Nicolas earned certifications and joined the training team at Creps de Montpellier, shaping the next generation of outdoor leaders. But his true sanctuary remains Hérault’s waterways, where he now thrives as a fly fishing guide. Here, he unveils the region’s hidden beauty, one cast at a time, while mentoring enthusiasts in the art of dry fly presentation.

Rivers Teeming with Opportunity
Nicolas’s playground boasts some of France’s most breathtaking rivers, each offering a unique challenge for anglers. Whether targeting brown trout or grayling, his expert insights transform every outing into a masterclass. With De Rîves en Dérives, the wild waters of Hérault aren’t just fished—they’re experienced.

(Subheading suggestions for clarity:)
– Master the Dry Fly
– Expert Guidance for Iconic Species
– Explore Hérault’s Hidden Gems

Final tagline:
“Where tradition meets technique, and every cast tells a story.”

(Note: Retained the original French name “De Rîves en Dérives” for brand consistency, but added a descriptive English subtitle for broader appeal.)
