Start Fly Fishing

Ever picked up a rod or seen others doing it and fancied fly fishing? If you are a beginner, Andrew Hathaway will provide all teaching and guiding experiences so that you understand the water and the techniques that will allow you to catch on the reservoirs. However, if like me you found an old rod and reel in the shed or inherited one and fancy going out on your own, WFFC members will be on the water most days so please don't hesitate to ask for advice.

Congratulations to Jacek Klekowski who won our annual Summer League for the second year in a row. Great angling Jacek.
