In addition to the match, Sue MacNiven of Damsel Fly Casting tuition was in attendance and provided some advice and a quick lesson to some of our juniors, all of whom thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity and some were showing signs of being first class fly casters of the future!

Thanks to Sue for coming and thank you for her excellent ongoing support of our club and the sport.

We hope everyone had fun and look forward to our next match – the McHarg trophy to be fished at Wee Glenamour on the 3rd of August 2025.
