Saltwater Fly Fishing survey

#1 Post by teacher »

We've been approached by someone trying to determine the number of Saltwater Fly Fishers in Ireland. Please post here or send me a PM if:

(a) You Saltwater Fly Fish, and/or

(b) You would be interested in a Saltwater Flyfishing Festival in 2008

Thanks.

I don't think there are any details yet, but I'll try to find out more.
