Hi folks  :cool:

I am holding a Haddo Bamboo Gathering on Saturday August the 25th, starting at the usual 9.30 in the morning and finishing at about 4pm.

As per the last gathering, this is a very simple event, bamboo or split cane fly rods only on the day and you can fish from the boats or the float tubes ....... whichever you prefer ...... a chance for bamboo enthusiasts to get together and have a good blether  :wink

If you fancy coming along ......... please reply here or get in touch via the fishery mobile 07810 868897  :z15





Best wishes
Mike Barrio

Mike,

Thanks for organising another good day for fishing with grass.  Obviously not too many people think about bamboo and rainbow together in Aberdeenshire but I had a great time and I think we have a convert in Mark!
