Cygnets Outing

The Cygnets had their first outing of 2012 to Swanswater for the more experienced members and to the Mill Pond for the less experienced.  There was 7 Cygnets fishing on Swanswater and 6 fishing the Mill Pond.  It was a very difficult day for fishing with strong winds and showers throughout the day. The first two hours proved to be hard work for the Cygnets fishing Swanswater, with the wind blowing to gale force at times. In between the strong winds the Cygnets did manage to hook and land fish. Due to the strengthening winds to continuing to gale force, the decision was made to take the Cygnets down to fish the Mill/Meadow Ponds in relation to safety. It proved to be near impossible for some of  the Cygnets to fish thereafter due to the weather conditions.




The successful Cygnets today were:-

Eddie McKillop - 2 fish (1 fish Swanswater and 1 fish pond beside Meadow Pond)
Abbi Hutton - 1 fish (Swanswater)
Cameron Smith - 1 fish (Swanswater)
Robert Fyfe - 1 fish (Swanswater)
William Addison - 1 fish (Swanswater)

Emma Hughes - 1 fish (Mill Pond)
Louise Dinley - 1 fish (Mill Pond)
Alasdair Anderson - 1 fish (Mill Pond)

The next Cygnets session will be on Sunday 27th May commencing as normal at 09:30am with fly tying and 10:00am setting up rods etc with fishing starting at 10:30am.

Our Cygnets Honorary President, Paul Young will be coming along to the next session to see the Cygnets.
