Ian has reminded me that the 1950s vintage front cover we displayed in the October issue<\/a> was drawn by Alex Gurney<\/a>, the artist who penned Bluey and Curley<\/em> amongst others \u2013 some of the senior members of the club will know who we are talking about.\u00a0 I\u2019ve found another one from the early \u201850s.\u00a0 I\u2019ll try to find more during this year of recalling our heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many thanks to Claude for his \u201cPresident\u2019s Notes\u201d this month and his report on Oct Fly Tying.  Also, sincere appreciation to BJ, Shaun, Alan and JM for contributions this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JM provided a promotion for the Brogo event but just a short while ago advised that WaterwaysNSW have their reservoirs still for \u201cDay Use Only\u201d due to COVID-19.  He\u2019s exploring options and all will be revealed by email soon.  I\u2019ve left the article in this issue as it might entice some private visits to the waters \u2013 it is a great site that we will certainly visit again at some time.  Jason also noted that in Dec 2019, after we were last there, levels had halved again, down to 13%.  Jan 2020 they were at 10%.  In Feb, it went from 10% to 100% in 24 hours.  Wow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports this month are: the successful 75th<\/sup> anniversary dinner; the equally successful Lyle Knowles comp with reports here complete with photographic evidence; secret hints from Nathan for fishing the Eucumbene \u2013 many thanks to Andrew for taking notes at the October meeting (this was conducted as a \u201cZoom and Room\u201d \u2013 a few hiccups and mixups but I believe successful) and finally an item from JM on using his kayak on the Goodradigbee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worth a look: https:\/\/vfa.vic.gov.au\/recreational-fishing\/targetonemillion2\/crownland<\/a>  \u2026 the Victorian initiative in respect to Crown Land\/TSRs.  Is this a model we should seek for in NSW?  I dropped in to the Goodradigbee and the TSR has clear \u2018do not camp\u2019 signs.  The problem there (and some other land which I think Council manages) is probably the poor behaviour of previous campers.  That said, if toilets are not provided then the inevitable happens \u2013 it is one thing to seek people to take their rubbish, it is a significant step to insist they have their own portaloos \u2026. though the Kiwis have forged a path in that respect too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While talking New Zealand, a mate pointed me to this \u2013 he denies it was him.  My first reaction was \u201ccanal feeder\u201d but it being a brown does have me wondering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With my Membership Officer hat on \u2026 another gentle reminder about fees.\u00a0 There are handful of \u2018regulars\u2019 who have not yet paid.\u00a0 Remember that you need to be financial to be considered for trophies!\u00a0 Alan had to rush through his dues in light of his Lyle Knowles catch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
