2009 Teach In

Photos of this years event    Back to Annual Teach - In

 

This years Teach In was held at our Goose Green fishery, Nr Ashington, West Sussex on the 11th July and was fished on all six lakes at the recently developed facility,

The ‘Teach In’ is run on a one tutor to one pupil basis and attracted 37 novice anglers this year, the event allows the pupils to have some of the best tuition available in the South-East of England thanks to the dedicated support of  the Pulborough AS match teams and pleasure anglers who freely volunteer their time to help the young, often first time anglers.

The kitchen & BBQ were set up under cover of the  marquee that the Society purchased for it's events, this purchase has been worth it's weight in gold and again was an invaluable piece of kit as the day proved to be a fairly wet affair with, what at times seemed to be a constant drizzle, despite the rain, all of our pupils caught fish, from tiny Gudgeon to large Carp and everything in between, the smiles on the faces of the youngsters is what makes this event for us, and we were not to be disappointed this year, with smiles and sounds of excitement to be seen and heard all around the fishery.

As always we would like to express our deep appreciation to Sandy Emery, Simon & Carol Parker for keeping the troops fed and watered, with an unending supply of bacon butties, burgers and hot dogs, further thanks go towards our neighbours at the fishery, particularly to Tim for the use of his water supply and to Paul & Sue Goldring ( www.paulgoldring.co.uk ) for the use of their land for additional car parking, thanks also go to Pip Pranskus for the unenviable task of organising the entire event, Paul Chatfield, the Environment Agency & Arun Angling for their continued support and last but not least, those members who offer their free time to teach and to make the event the success it is.

See you again next year........
