Eleven members attended the second meeting of Cygnets. The day started with fly tying – Jimmy Miller instructed them in how to tie a ‘Kate McLaren’.
"Kate McLaren" was todays fly tying lesson
After this they moved outside where the five new members practised fly casting under the instruction of professional casting instructor Tam Anderson. The other cygnets went fishing with the waterside assistants in attendance (Jim Allan, Jimmy Miller, Dave Armour and Alasdair Fyfe).
Conditions were overcast and dry and the sun came out later in the morning.
The catch - the Cygnets had a productive morning – 10 fish caught and one returned.
Morgan McDougall – 2 trout (1 blue and 1 rainbow) and 1 returned caught on the ‘Kate McLaren’ she tied with Jimmy Miller prior to fishing.
Abbi Hutton – 2 rainbows
Thomas Penman – 1 rainbow
Robert Fyfe – 2 rainbows
William Addison – 2 rainbows
