Today was the first day casting snice the 12th of may and boy did the rust show. Lots of casts going out of court but by the end of the day everyone found the court, quite a few reels have to be fixed after been blown up, isn't that right Louis. Now for the weather, it started off dry and with a northwest breeze forecasted we set up in the lower flatter field casting away from the farm building, the breeze quickly changed direction then died off completely we also had a few rain showers with members being caught out and got soaked to the bone, poor Graeme. Anyway the rods where dusted off and slow reels put on to suit the conditions, while pleasant didn't help much on the casting. We had a new face today as Bobby Laughlin joined us for a few pointers, hope we helped mate and come back anytime. Bobby did make the mistake of pulling his best cast before we could measure it but it was around 125yards. Seeing as today was designated as 150g practice day for our upcoming members event, which is in two weeks, most of us got a few casts on that lead before moving to lighter stuff. well done to Stevie who did really well on he 175g in bad conditions and judging by todays results the 150g competition could see a close battle for second place, unless Graeme's new style come together(south American high reel)
