Fishing Day

Well, although there was some rain, the weather was kind to us for our family fishing day. Hass Loch is an atmospheric setting in the hills near Carter Bar and we had over 40 young people under 16 with their, parents, grandparents, and Rotarians of all ages.  Some lovely fish were caught, but many managed to escape. Members made hot-dogs, cakes and sandwiches, to cater for the hungry fishers, some of whom had come a long way, from Edinburgh, Dumfries and Galloway and the North Pennines. Instruction was a hand from the Tweed Foundation, Tweedstart Young Ambassadors and James Hunt, Head Biologist at the Tweed Foundation, will be exploring the water life in the loch.

We couldn't do this without the generous help of Jedforest Angling Association.
