Meetings and events
The year begins with a course of six lessons – flies that catch fish, held on consecutive weeks starting on Monday 6th January 2017 (with the exception of Monday 13th February which clashes with the Fly Fishers meeting and so we skip a week).
Following this, on alternative months there will be further fly tying lessons and demonstrations by club instructors. On the other alternate months there will be guest speakers and fly-tyers, who show members how to use the latest techniques and to tie new fly patterns.
The club holds two friendly competitions each year, which are aimed at encouraging beginners to widen their experience by visiting different venues which present a new set of challenges.
