Exmoor Fly Fishing

“Fishing for force” Force is a local cancer charity, John Dawson is organising a day at Exe Valley Fishery by kind permission of Sue & Nick Hart, both John and myself will be in attendance offering tuition and help in all aspects of fly fishing.
It’s a very worthwhile cause, here’s a little bit more about the charity… details for booking are on the flyer….Chris🎣

At FORCE Cancer Charity we believe that anyone diagnosed with cancer deserves the best possible treatment and professional support, face to face and close to home.
We have a Cancer Support and Information Centre in Exeter for patients and their loved ones who need physical, emotional, psychological and practical support.

We also offer support and information and fund the delivery of chemotherapy once a week in Okehampton, Tiverton and Honiton.

All our services are free.

Aaron Bunning who has made the most of the fish turning on at Lower Tamar with 4 commons and three over 20lbs up to 23lb12oz.  Aaron had this report for us: ‘I fished Monday after work till midday Tuesday when the fish began to spawn. All the fish fell to white Scopex Squid 15mm pop ups presented on naked chod rigs over light weed. I also fed a scattering of scopex squid freebies to the area i was fishing at 100 yards range. Was chuffed to get amongst some of the 20lb commons the lake contains’.
