A Lovely Days Fishing

Sixteen young people from the Chiltern School in Houghton Regis had a great time on Tuesday 18th June when they were hosted for the day by Members of the Bedfordshire Branch of the MTSFC, supported by some guest fishermen.

All the young people had a very pleasant summers day at Greensand Fisheries near Sandy. It’s a perfect setting; with families of geese and ducks on the lakes, red kites flying overhead, dragon flies in abundance and the fish biting well, you couldn’t ask for better!

After enjoying a hotdog & cheeseburger lunch, provided by Richard Frood and his helpers, all the youngsters were presented with medals and certificates of achievement before heading home.

The days, organised by the members of the Bedfordshire Centenary Fishing Lodge No 9151 and the MTSFC team, are very rewarding and really benefit the young people who attend.

As well as funding for the events, there is a need for more helpers and fishermen to volunteer a few hours here and there, so if you or your lodge members could support this good work please contact Richard Frood on 07712 542769  or email richardfrood@gmail.com for more information.
