Thankyou, we weren’t teaching the fishing side itself just how to make a trout fly and how to cast. It’s quite a skill to cast a fly and for safety sake we taught that on grass with a fly with the pointy bit removed.

I love seeing kids achieve things they think they can’t. I taught martial arts before I moved to Scotland when I retired. This replaces the feeling I got seeing kids mastering karate and judo. So many don’t have people who can help them with things like this. I just feel we should give something back in this way!
I think it's wonderful you take the time to teach kids some survival-type skills. Who knows when one may need it and remember what you taught? 🥰🥰
 
It’s a one off show and this is the second year it’s run. Last year though we sponsored eight kids through our winter formal classes. They come along each week and I teach them and provide all the tools and materials free. Then we have them join us on trips and teach them to fish with the flies.

I do quite a lot of community stuff up here. I Chair two organisations, one community and one sporting and sit as Trustee of two charities. I just see that this time of my life is about putting back in what I have taken out!
What a wonderful thing to do, G! I bet it's really fun and rewarding for you, as well! 💞💞
 
Mmmmm coffee ty OM

I was in bed by 8 PM last night and just woke up, still tired. I tackled yard work and have come to realize that my back sucks lol

Heading in to work later.

I hope everyone has a relaxing and enjoyable Sunday. Supposed to be nice and hot here today, after the fog burns off
Try some stretches for your back, Sin! Don't work too hard!
