I confess that in the past when I was more heavily involved with the Don I was, on occasion, something of a critic of the ADAA. As a club it seemed fixed on acquiring as much fishing as it could (particularly on the Don) for its members out into Aberdeenshire whilst excluding the vast majority of folk living outside of Aberdeen. Clearly over the last decade, and particularly over the last five years, there has been something of a welcome spell of enlightenment within the committee and I'd say that today - on the face of it - the ADAA is very much taking the initiative and looking forward rather than backwards. This most recent change of membership conditions is an excellent thing to be seeing as was the opening up of the majority of their trout beats for Sunday fishing. Well done ADAA 

Now to answer this:

....is the adaa Ythan beat any good.

Yes.

That happens to me in just about everything in my life ...... the day after you buy a car, you see the same model in better condition and cheaper somewhere else
