March 2017's Open Weekend was one of the best attended to date, as the excitement builds for the forthcoming fishing season. This year's focus was all about learning and equipping anglers with all the latest tips, tricks and techniques. Free fly casting tuition, sea rig tying demos, lure fishing demos, audio visual presentations and fly tying demos were available throughout the weekend and clearly there is still a huge appetite for growth and improvement.
