Default Young fisherwomen - Opinions


"JoHunter" wrote in message
ups.com...
I am a young woman (20) who is very keen in learning how to fly fish.
I will soon be moving up to Dunkeld, Perthshire and want to take
advantage of the Tay's reputation for great fishing. As I've been
looking around it seems there are few women, much less quite young
women, who are interested in the sport. What are the reactions I'm
likely to get from anglers as I look for advice? Is it quite a
welcoming, friendly affair? What would you think of a youngster
fishing on the same beat as you? Just curious to hear some opinions.


If you join a club or local group you will find the passes and advances to
be more refined and polite. It is also a way to meet new friends and pick up
advice. Most clubs will let you visit a meeting or two before joining and
you will be able to see if there are any other ladies in attendance.
