Stick Float Clinic 24th October 2023

In October we held a stick float clinic with guest expert Keith Arthur and VAR Club member Paul Andermahr supported by Marford Farm bailiffs. 18 members attended and the feedback was excellent.

“I must say that I thought the SFC was a great success. Keith and Paul are both extremely knowledgeable, very personable and nothing was too much trouble. They were interesting and made the day.”

“And it was very interesting listening and learning about different aspects of the Marford Farm fishery. “

“A big thank you also to the man who provided us with brilliant rolls, burgers, tea and coffee. It was very welcome and much appreciated.”

I thought it was a thoroughly enjoyable event.  Congratulations to you and the team for organising and putting the event on.  I thought the food was great.  Many Thanks to the Bob.  You,  Keith and Paul were interesting and informative and generous in your sharing of knowledge. I thought the contrast between their different approaches was an interesting one and I certainly picked up a number of tips.

“A thoroughly enjoyable experience and please accept my sincere thanks to you and the team,”

“Firstly, it was an absolute enjoyable pleasure to be there and meet and chat to other members of the club.. l thought Keith and Paul covered most aspects on the day although in two completely different ways which for me was a great learning curv

“Thanks again for yesterday, I think it was a very well-run day and will certainly encourage me to get the float rod out more often for sure.”

“I thought the day was perfect to be honest it was everything I expected luckily the weather was on our side as well

It was good I thought to do the walk about along the long walk and short walk I found that interesting and picked up a few hints as well as learning a few tips and knots to use it goes to show I’m 73 and you’re never too old to learn new tricks”
