Making Anglers on the Angling Trust Family Fish Day

Posted by: Sarah Thomson, 8th August 2016 13:24PM

We held a Angling Trust funded Family Fish day on Saturday which was led by Level II angling coach Kevin Nicholsan (Fakenham) and assisted by volunteer coach Phil Nichols (Gt Yarmouth).
 
We had a morning and afternoon session and 22 people from the ages of 3 - 43 yrs got the chance to go fishing. All the bait and tackle was provided from Barford Tackle and the event was held on the Barford Lakes' Top Lake.

Joanna Greegrass wrote in an email to me...
Thank you so much for the fishing morning yesterday. The boys had a great time and can't wait to come back. The Dad has said a special thank you to both Kevin and Phil, they were excellent, how they helped and taught the boys. They all learnt lots and Riley caught a great carp.

The next free coaching events are on Friday 19th August from 1pm - 4pm and on Friday 26th August 9am - 12pm.  
 
Please book in on 01603 759624 or info@barfordlakes.com . All coaching, bait and equipment provided - just bring something to sit on!
