Last week we hosted our final Masterclass of the season with a visit from Dave Southall. Dave’s session included an Italian style casting demonstration (with laser tight loops), an entomology session which included kick-sampling and Dave’s very small and successful dry fly patterns, they were way smaller than expectations!
Another informative and successful day-on-the-river!
