Star of stage and screen!
I am exepcting a “no photos or autographs” form Mark this morning as he turns up today before he is out teaching. This is because he featured on the local TV news the other night and was shown teaching a lady how to roll cast for the cameras for the very worthy Casting for Recovery weekend that has just taken place.
Mark has written a blog about the day which will go up shortly but I know he and Jax thoroughly enjoyed it. Casting For Recovery is a charity for women recovering from breast cancer where they have the opportunity to meet others who have been through the same as themselves. Part of the weekend, among many other things, is the opportunity to learn to fly fish. The reson for this is that the gentle excersise of casting is perfect for joint and soft tissue mobility during the recovery process. It sounds as though the weekend was a great success and as ever the ladies showed that you don’t need muscle to propel your fly to the horizon!
It was great to get calls from fellow anglers yesterday saying they were catching off of the top yesterday which hopefully is a good sign but lets hope the weather holds.
