Catch are back!
Helping to get youngsters into angling

HBraving the recent cold conditions at Poolsbrook Country Park - local youngsters with NFA angling coaches

Chesterfield Anglers, Tutors, Coaches, Helpers (C.A.T.C.H.) - are back on the banks helping wannabe anglers try their hand at the country's favourite participant sport - angling.
National Federation of Anglers licensed angling coaches Tony Bagshaw, Lew Lawton, Paul Lewis and Kevin Finnigan are holding coaching sessions at Poolsbrook Country Park on Sunday mornings throughout the summer - the sessions are totally free of charge with all the equipment and bait supplied. Participants are asked to wear clothing and footwear suitable for the occasion.
Tony Bagshaw, secretary for CATCH said: 'By removing barriers of cost and availability, we are giving youngsters aged 8 to 18, the chance to have a go at angling and hopefully it will lead to a life-long activity - everyone will be made very welcome.'
Tony further added: 'We are planning to organise away-day sessions at various fisheries throughout the Midlands, enabling youngsters to visit different venues and explore other angling methods and techniques.'
CATCH is funded by Derbyshire Community Foundation, the Environment Agency and Staveley Neighbourhood Management Project.
