Part 2 NQ Flyfishing outing

After the fish in the morning the NQ Flyfishers had a break and came back in the afternoon to practice some casting. I am not sure if the fishing had an effect but we had 13 members roll up to the casting session. I will let the photos do the talking.

We did some work in the classroom first and then moved outside to three areas. A distance casting patch with 10m,20m,30m squares, a side casting area to work on loops and another casting patch made up of 3 squares into the wind. It was a little haphazard as it was a little damp and not enough planning. But it was a successful activity as I think everyone learned a little or a lot. So next time a little more structure would only improve the outcomes for all. Thank you to Heatley Secondary College for the use of their oval and rooms.
