Hi Dave,
Thanks for all the info on the Cumbria Fishing Festival. Can I add to your info that Smoky Jo's are running a series of food smoking courses as part of the Fishing Festival and are offering a 10% discount on both their one day and two day courses. For more info - http://www.gofishinglakedistrict.co.uk/new...mp;current_id=1 I cannot wait for the week to start as I hope to enjoy some of the events. Jo |

I really hope, despite my rather cynical earlier post about there being enough tourists clogging up the lake district without encouraging more to come, that the weather sorts itself out for this event. The last 2 weeks up here have been awful. The stiff cold wind and freezing showers have kept our hulls dry for the last fortnight, and one would have to be both an enthusuatic optimist and a blody expert to enjoy fishing (especially fly fishing) in it. The end of march was like summer in comparison.
