Arnfield Reservoir visit...

Today a few Nomads visited Arnfield Reservoir, a great venue and correct me if I'm wrong but this was our 5th visit as a club!?

Only four out of 30+ members attended today, due to the conditions and it being a bank holiday, never the less the four nomads powered on. Landing 10 fish between them which wasn't a bad haul considering the conditions they were faced with!

Top Rod on the Day was John Burrow, with 4 fish.

Good angling "me - duck" in adverse conditions the Nomads prevailed!

Tightlines and until next time (by the way our next session, viewable on our website, linked below, will be at Dingle Reservoir).

Nick Halstead Presentation Evening May 2014

After a long wait heres a blog on our Nick Halstead Presentation evening....

Nick Halstead a well established fly angler, both on the competition scene and as a contributor of the reputable fly fishing magazine "Trout Fisherman".
With Nicks long standing reputation in the fly fishing industry, he was the right first speaker in our first ever Nomad Presentation. This evening took place on Saturday 17th May, first commencing our monthly team meeting, around 4:30pm.

Following on was Nick with his presentation, around 6pm until 8pm.

A massive thank you goes out to Nick for keeping the entire 20+ Members on the edge of their seats, every single anglers commented on how down to earth Nick was, which made it that much more enjoyable!

Heres a snippet of the evening, a few beers followed in the local pub, talks of fly fishing for bass! and our trip to Braithwaite and possibly Rutland Water discussed.... A great end to a great evening, we WILL be having Nick back, if he will be as kind enough to honour us with his presence for a second time next season!


Thanks ever so much Nick for an evening to remember....
