Well, it finally stopped raining at about 3pm yesterday.  The sun came out and it warmed considerably.  The river remained high all day with a strong flow under both arches at New Inn bridge - too strong for easy fishing.  This morning sees a return to cold, grey and quite blustery conditions but the river has dropped over night and fishing should be OK on stretches sheltered from the north west wind.

The annual Hot Pot supper has been booked.  This not to be missed event in the MAA calendar will take place at the usual venue on Friday 13 October - an auspicious day!  It would be good too see as many members as possible present as this is a chance to thank local farmers and land owners for their continued good will towards the club.  Invites will issue shortly.  Please do try to make it up to Horton.  Why not stay over and tackle the salmon on the Saturday?  There are still rooms available at the Crown.  By the way, the new licensee is Sandra Millman who some members will know.  It's her son, Steven, who is our assistant keeper.  So she has an interest in the club.
