Junior members of the TAC attended a local youth club along with the resident fishing group for ‘Rigs n Tips’ day.

Juniors were shown many aspects of how terminal tackle should be presented and how to best to put all the component parts together. Along with this there was a piking tips and a lure angling demonstation which was enjoyed by everyone.

To cap off a brilliant day the TAC held a casting competition where anglers were given the chance to win some new terminal tackle. They taught the older members just how easy it can be to cast into a bucket!

Special thanks must go to the juniors who made the effort to get along despite the weather and to Walton Tackle Exchange and Fishing Unlimited for the kind donatations along with Keith Arthur’s generous donation. Also to Andy Mackie from Surbiton Angling and Jeff Kennet from Teddington Lock  for coming along and passing on many years of knowledge.

Finally thanks to Ben Skelton of Ham and Petersham youth club for inviting the TAC down for the event.
