Anybody fancy a wee forum get together this coming weekend at Lochter fishery?

Maintaining reasonable distances and all that   :)

Alas I can't manage this, would like to be there but have unavoidable domestic responsibilities at the weekends  *smiley-unhappy* and 'little me' isn't ready for a road trip and fishing day combo that far just yet.

Nevertheless, maybe another time  :z16

I'm keen to tag along guys, would be good to see a few faces again, been way too long.

Pity Hamish, was actually thinking about giving you a shout to look at something like this but Mike's beaten me to it :)  >)

We could always do another one 'up north' in a few weeks time if Hamish can find a window  *smiley-wink*

Hi,

I'd have been right up for this, but already got plans this saturday for a bit f stock car racing down in Cowdenbeath........(varied hobbies,  *smiley-funny*).

Any other Saturday / Sunday, next time whenever I'll be there, :-), be great to catch up with loads of old faces!, (not in the age sense)

Fly fishing and Stock Cars ...... sounds like a pretty good hobby combo to me Steven  *smiley-grin*

I drove a Mk1 Escort in one race at Crimond many moons ago, it was good fun  >)

Cheers

Would have loved to be there but family plans at loch Earn will scupper the idea. I would be more than happy to join a day out at a fishery outside the normal fishing season.

Have fun and tight lines to all who go along.

What's the plan?

For those that haven't been before - these things are totally informal and there is no meeting point or plan  *smiley-grin*

Simply turn up at the same fishery on the day ( in this case Lochter Fishery on Saturday )  fish for as long or as little as you'd like, and bump into other forumite friends on the bank while you enjoy your fishing  >)

I would have loved to come along. Unfortunately, we are visiting family on the West Coast, so I can't make it.

No, I don't think so Rob  *smiley-grin*

But, on a serious note, if anybody is coming along and maybe won't recognise faces ..... please don't hesitate to let me know in advance via PM and I'll do my best to introduce you to everybody on the day  :z16
