Coaches Mary Tigwell and Nick Richards of Lakelands Angling Club were delighted to bring the boys from St. Patricks out to Kiltybarden on a lovely sunny day last week. The pupils were introduced to coarse fishing using a whip and the feeder method and everyone caught fish to include roach, skimmers and perch!
It was a busy day which also included a pole cupping competition, fish care, catch and release, fish identification and casting. Even the principal Noel went home with some useful angling related tips!
We look forward to some of those who took part joining us for our summer angling programme – for more into contact [email protected]
