Title: River Spey Anglers Association Mini Fly Fishing Festival 19.01.19 Inchberry Hall
Post by: Allan Liddle on 14/12/2018 at 10:45: Hi Everyone

I'm helping the RSAA put together a small tying and fishing fair type thing on Saturday 19th January.
Tying demos from Sean Stanton, Ron Sutherland, Liam Stephen and obviously yours truly throughout the day with a beginners salmon, beginners trout workshop running and a try tying for the first time bench.

Local Tackle Shop the Angling Centre will be there with a small range of materials for sale, No29 craft shop from Fochabers also attending selling a range of Maderia threads (see FFFT this issue and all will be revealed :wink)
Burger van to keep us all fed, casting tuition from Dave Mateer and possibly the Deveron Trust on hand to promote the fishing on this iconic river (yup we're hoping to get the Spey involved as well and wouldn't turn away the Don or any fishery who also fancies attending to support the event).

So all in all a wee fun day out which we hope attracts a few to come along and chew the fat to help see us through until the curtain goes up on another season ahead.

Regards
Allan

PS Would have popped this into the events calendar but couldn't find it :oops

Post by: Allan Liddle on 04/01/2019 at 20:48: Not long now till this one rolls round, wondering if any here interested in attending, would be great to see a few forum members popping along, worth it to watch Sean Stanton and Ron Sutherland tying their various salmon patterns, i believe Sean's also taking along some materials for sale and both will most likely have flies to sell with them

Scott McKenzie is heading over with his rod range and awaiting confirmation from Ian Gordon to see if he's still able to tag along and offer salmon fishing advice to all who need it on the day.

Fur shitty troot flees you'll just have to put up with Liam and me :z4

Hope to see you there

Thanks
Allan

Post by: Allan Liddle on 16/01/2019 at 07:39: Last shout out for this one for Saturday.
Weather forecast shows it to be ok for the weekend, cold but perfect for an indoor fly tying event :wink

To add to the list our very own Kevin Muir also heading over as a tyer, Partridge Hooks and Fly Fishing and Fly Tying helping out and supporting us in a little way and Deveron Trust there to promote all things Deveron.

Shaping up nicely to be a great wee show, if your free Saturday why not pop along.

Cheers
Allan

Post by: Allan Liddle on 20/01/2019 at 20:39: Thanks to everyone who made it along, it was a resounding success and a great wee show. Day passed in a blur to be honest and some great craic and banter along the way.

Might even do it again next year, meantime it's on to the next one, this coming Saturday at the Cottage Bar Maryburgh where i'll be tying alongside Liam Stephen once again and our very own Sir Hamish Young who's down to tie a few Squirmies i think :z4

Thank you once more guys; and don't worry H i'll have the 'skirt' on again next week :wink
