The support and cohesion members of the Fly Fishing community and industry showed on the day was exceptional and we have shown the Minister and the many attendees what can be done when we all work together. Thanks again to all the Red Tag members who tirelessly setup and pulled down all of the event displays in what was a very hectic few hours.
