With this article we are very pleased to welcome Alex Jardine to the Fish & Fly team! Already a succesful angler in his own right, Alex has represented England at World Youth level several times and represents the next generation of up and coming fly fishers. This first short article looks briefly at a branch of our sport enjoying new life of late - coarse fish on the fly and reminds us all that there is still sport to be had even at this time of year! Welcome Alex!
