Next Meeting
8 Apr – normal time of 7:30PM at Raiders/Weston club. Paul will be regaling us with tales and tips from his recent and very successful New Zealand trip.
Next Activities
23 Apr – Fly tying – Perdigon and Sunken Ant. Details will be emailed. Look out for Zoom invite.
24-26 Apr – Goodradigbee with Ryan … looks like there is one bed available.
No club event for March – cancelled as Claude was available to lead (and no-one volunteered to take it on?). Instead we have some personal reports – an extensive one from some ‘usual suspects’, one from a regular contributor of other snippets and one from a keen junior member.
We have more from our WhatsApp channels – contact Claude to join up.
As always – some interesting links from Greg S as well as a report on his recent trip to the coast. A fabulous report from Hector on his Canberra Day trip – since catching his first trout on fly at Jindabyne he’s really gotten into the swing of things.
Our web home page has references to the new individual membership for NSWCFA and MAS.
Jason’s secret recipe suitable for fishing trips
Our home page https://canberra-anglers.asn.au/ has been updated to reflect the new individual membership opportunities with NSWCFA and MAS.
For any of our subscribers who had contemplated getting engaged with the Monaro Acclimatisation Society (the guys who stock our regional streams) there will soon be a way to join as an individual, complementing the traditional approach of joining a branch (club).

Mitch and the team at Gaden have provided their latest report. Disappointing rainbow run this year … even more sad news is that Mitch looks to be moving on. He has been major player in upgrading the hatchery and will be missed.
the constitution was amended via a Special General Meeting conducted in conjunction with a normal meeting. Changes were principally related to our non-profit status, amending the facility to appoint temporary honorary membership for visitors and some minor clarifications. Has been fully processed through the ACT authorities

Jason spotted this. I was aware Gold Cards could get a free Concession Pass but now all cards including the DVA Veteran’s White Card can get this concession.

A simple on-line process, though my validation required sending an image of the card as using the card number didn’t work.
