Default Corker of an annual Gathering in Monmouthshire

Check out this year's annual get together for the Wild Trout Trust. Open to all comers, the programme is on the link below. Chance to meet other anglers from around the country, some cracking talks and evening meal and complementary fishing for up to 60 rods across the Monnow system.

It would be foolish to miss it if you are available and have even a passing interest in river fishing

Wild Trout Trust.

If it gets overbooked, then obviously members (particularly Life Members! ) have a certain priority, but the event itself is open to all.

Though if you like what you find there, it is very good manners to join up.

PS I work for the WTT and I have paid for my life membership as I believe we are the best in the UK at what we do.

Everyone who enjoys fishing the rivers should consider joining up. The WTT are very good at what they do, punching well above there weight.

Should be a great weekend with some fantastic fishing available on Sunday after what will be an infomative and entertaining Saturday.

Looking forward along with the other Monnow mafiosa to meeting some of you there.

This is very worth while attending being located as it is in some of the finest countryside in the UK and on the magnificent Monnow.
