Our March Tackle Auction
Every March our meeting highlight is a tackle auction of donated or surplus fishing tackle. This is always our most well-attended event of the year. It is an opportunity to find some real tackle bargains, from rods, reels and nets through to fly-tying materials.
All proceeds are donated to the Warwickshire Air Ambulance
