The Spring Fly Fishing Show
The show season is now underway. The guild has been represented at a number of regional shows this Spring. The Spring Fly Fishing Show at Newark seems to improve every year. Attendance was good on both days and we benefited by having a shooting show on at the same time. A large number of people came across form the shooting show swelling the numbers considerably. The weather was kind, no rain nor snow so the casting outside was not the trial by tempest it could have been.
We had a great deal of interest and joined up a number of new members. Thanks to Colin Hegg, David Palmer and David Watkin for their help on the stand.
The Bristol branch attended a country show at the Bath and Wells Showground while the Swale branch attended a similar show at the Kent County Showground. Thanks to all concerned.
