Why This Weekend Will Transform Your Fishing & Beachworming Experience

This isn't just another fishing trip. It's a hands-on learning experience spread out over three days. As the tides and conditions change, Roger will show you what to do each hour to ensure you understand how to catch fish and worms at any time of day.

Due to the hands-on nature of this weekend, only 24 people
can join Roger for this three-day weekend at Wairo Beach, NSW!

Learn from the Best:

Roger Osborne is not just an expert; he's a passionate teacher who loves sharing his knowledge. His hands-on approach means you'll receive personalized instruction and immediate feedback. You'll learn to read the beach, understand the tides, and perfect your technique, making you a more confident and successful angler.

Transform Your Skills:

Imagine returning home with new techniques and insights that set you apart from other anglers. From mastering beach worming to understanding the intricacies of beach reading, you'll gain skills that will boost your confidence and success in any fishing endeavour. This weekend is your chance to learn from the best and see immediate improvements in your fishing.

Personalized Group Instruction: Roger's step-by-step guidance ensures that you and a group of like-minded fishos receive the attention and instruction needed to master new techniques.

"I caught three worms on the first day. Roger knows how to teach beachworming!"

"I always wished my dad had lived long enough to teach me how to worm. He passed away when I was so young. I’ve been trying to learn since I was 5, then 7, then 10—so many times over the years. But on the first day Roger showed me, I caught three worms on my first attempt.

After 45 years of trying, I couldn’t believe it. I was so excited I was shaking. Worming always seemed impossible, like something I’d never be able to do. But Roger made it seem achievable. Now that I’ve caught four worms, I know I can go away, practice, and get even better.

I was absolutely stoked. A little emotional, actually. But mostly, I was just so excited. I think Roger is amazing. He’s very personable. I’ve heard people say, “What you see is what you get,” and it’s so true. When he talks, he makes eye contact—you feel like he already knows you. And when he speaks to a group, he connects with everyone in the room.

I had one of my oldest friends down here with me, and we had an awesome time. We learned so much, caught some great fish, and just enjoyed being in such a beautiful place.

Roger is a genuinely lovely guy with a deep passion for fishing and for teaching others. He makes fishing feel achievable. He uses techniques that anyone can replicate and doesn’t rely on expensive gear, which makes the sport accessible to everyone. His passion is obvious, and I think it really rubs off on people."

"Roger teaches you techniques and tips that would take years to learn on your own." 

Ash, from Lindfield, Sydney, a long-term follower of Rogers on YouTube, made the following comments:

"It's it's all I expected and more. You are learning new techniques, tips and tricks from the master. And great camaraderie with great people. A group of people. Great locations. I couldn't speak more highly of the fishing clinic. It's amazing. And to me, the jewel in the crown was the beach worming session,"  said Ash.

It's just amazing. It has taught me new skills I will take home with me. After Roger taught us how to pick the best spot on the beach to fish, I located a spot on the beach I thought was very fishy, and it proved to be the case. I then landed my first salmon—brilliant!"

 For long-time Roger's Fishing community member John Stokes, a 13-hour drive from Queensland seemed like a lot. He wrestled with the time, cost, and distance, but now he calls it the best decision he could have made.

“I was anxious about the time and cost, but it’s been worth every kilometre. Seriously, this is one of the best weekends I’ve had in a long time!” – John

“After spending years in Roger’s online community, it was surreal at first to finally meet everyone and be right there learning from him. He’s exactly like he is in his videos – genuinely passionate about teaching and helping us improve.”

 Learning directly from Roger—someone with an unmatched depth of knowledge and a passion for sharing his expertise—has hooked John. He’s already planning to come back for more.

“It’s a privilege to be here with Roger. Not anybody else has got the knowledge that Roger’s got. Seeing it firsthand was amazing. There's so many little things I have learned . Between Roger, and the two other fishing coaches Lawrie and Hayden, they taught me a lot and I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I am actually coming to the next weekend - I have really enjoyed myself!” – John

Gary came to the weekend with a new Alvey rod and reel and no idea how to use it. Thanks to Roger’s guidance, Gary went from hesitant to confident, quickly landing some of the biggest fish of the weekend.

“They helped me with casting, and taught me how to use an Alvey rod and reel properly. Within minutes, I’d landed a salmon! It was incredible.” – Gary

In fact, Gary’s success wasn’t a one-time thing. After just 10-15 minutes of coaching, he was casting farther, with more control, and catching fish he’d only dreamed about before.

“I increased my casting distance by another 10-15 metres, and I ended up catching the biggest fish of the weekend – a 50 cm salmon! I even caught the smallest fish, a three-inch puffer, so I got both ends of the spectrum.”

Gary’s takeaway? It wasn’t just about learning to use the gear – it was about building confidence and seeing results instantly.

Gary was so impressed with the weekend, he sent Roger the following thank you note when he got back home sharing his thoughts on the weekend (plus, he spoke on camera about his experience):

The adventure begins Friday afternoon at Burrill Pines Conference Centre, just steps from Wairo Beach. After meeting Roger and the other fishos, you’ll kick off with an intensive beachworming session. If you’ve tried catching beachworms and failed, Roger’s expert techniques, honed over 50 years, will change everything. With hands-on support from Roger and his team, you’ll be beachworming with confidence in no time.

“The jewel in the crown was the beachworming session. Roger’s techniques made it easy to understand, and I picked it up faster than I thought I would. It’s amazing!” – Ash

This first session often brings surprising success, especially for those who’ve struggled in the past, and it’s just the start of the skills you’ll develop.

The Thrill of Twilight Beach Fishing – An Experience Like No Other

As the sun begins to set, you’ll move on to twilight beach fishing. Roger and his team will teach you how to read the beach at dusk, pick the best spot, and time your cast just right. For some, it’s their first time experiencing the quiet magic of fishing in the fading light, and the results speak for themselves.

“With Roger’s beach reading skills, I found a spot that felt ‘fishy’ – and it was! I got two bites and landed a salmon. The thrill is incredible!” – Ash

From beginners to pros, every participant benefits from the precise techniques and personal guidance Roger offers, making twilight fishing an unforgettable highlight of the weekend.

Learning how to cast has improved my fishing 

Saturday starts with a hearty breakfast, fueling up for a day of learning and action. Roger leads you through rigging and casting sessions, giving you personalized guidance to ensure your gear is optimized for results. Even small adjustments to rigging or casting make a massive difference in what you catch.

“The small adjustments Roger suggested made all the difference. I’d been fishing the same way for years, and learning about star sinkers, rigging, and positioning was a game-changer.” – John

With high tide coming in, the morning beach fishing session gives you a perfect opportunity to put your new skills to the test. With Roger and his team providing one-on-one feedback, each participant can improve their technique and catch.

After lunch, the group heads into beach reading, one of the most important skills any angler can learn. Roger will show you how to identify promising areas by reading the sand, waves, and tides. It’s a skill that will elevate your fishing anywhere.

“Learning to fish in different ways and using techniques I’d never thought of made the weekend invaluable. I’ll be able to use these skills for life.” – John

Saturday evening is topped off with Roger’s legendary Valencian-style paella. A professional caterer, Roger prepares a five-star meal for the group, gathering everyone around to swap stories and celebrate the day’s success.

“Last night’s paella was out of this world. Sitting around, swapping stories and laughs with a group of blokes who love fishing – it doesn’t get better.” – Andrew

 

Sunday morning is your last chance to implement everything you’ve learned. After another rigging session to dial in your setup, you’ll join the group for one final high-tide beach fishing session. This is where every skill you’ve practiced comes together, and the results speak for themselves – every participant in the last weekend caught a decent-sized fish, many for the first time.

“This weekend gave me a confidence I didn’t have before. Now, every time I go fishing, I know I’ll be able to use these new skills and actually see results.” – John

As the weekend winds down, you’ll share farewells, trade contact info with your new fishing mates, and leave knowing you’re a better angler than when you arrived.

• Unmatched Expertise and Hands-On Support: Roger and his two expert coaches provide personalized attention to ensure every participant leaves with newfound confidence and skill.

• Results-Driven Techniques: From extending casting distance to mastering beachworming, beginners and experienced anglers alike leave with practical skills they can use immediately.

• Friendships and Memories Beyond the Beach: Laughing, sharing stories, and celebrating together makes this weekend an experience that goes beyond just fishing.

“The amount of tips you get in one weekend is more than you’d learn in years on your own. It’s worth every minute and every dollar.” – Hamish
