If the weather continues like this and we are unable to fish Haddo after the March , how about we just meet up at the hut for a blether , swop flies , have  a go with sombody else's gear. I've loads of fishing books if anyone is looking for something to read,  I could bring the barbie and a few burgers.

Just an idea , but lets hope the weather does improve

That's fine with me Jim ...... it gets quite cosy once I get the woodburner going

I hope we get some water before then though, fingers crossed

Hi all,

Just a reminder about the March to the River this Saturday.

We will be leaving from the front of the Kintore Arms Hotel, High Street, Inverurie at 09:30.

Hope to see you there and that it is not too snowy,

Regards,
Bri.

[Iain Goolager]

Looking forward to it.

I've tried explaining that he can take his rod but not the tube!



See you all there

Iain

[Mike Barrio]

Hi folks

I'm really looking forward to this tomorrow

Not really worth going over to Haddo afterwards, but we can maybe get a coffee and a blether in the hotel

Best wishes
Mike

[Mike Barrio]

Hi folks

I really enjoyed the march today, lots of folk to have a blether with and a grand day for it

It was great to see folk from the Don Fishery Board and the River Don Trust coming along too, I hope they enjoyed the march and will come along again in the future!

And the Minister and the Bissets with their poems and the blessing of the river, what can I say ...... Fantastic

Best wishes
Mike

PS: I didn't take my camera I'm afraid, maybe somebody else can email me some photos? "Machar"?

[Brian Brand]

Hi all,

As Mike has said above many thanks to all who attended today, it was good to see some new faces.

Thanks to the Raymond & Heather Bisset and Graeme Longmuir for their words and also to the River Don Trust representives for turning up.

I didn't have my camera either but I am sure that I will get some from the other folk that were taking photos and put them onto this site.

Well tight lines to all for 2009 and hope to see some of you down on the river, or lochs, if not hope to see you back this time next year.

Regards,
Bri.

[Mike Barrio]

Hi folks

"machar" emailed me through some photos ........ Thanks Iain
