Eight fly fishing enthusiasts took advantage of learning from the best when master fly-tyer and experienced fisherman Mo Bradley (third from right) presented a casting course in Barriere on Sunday, April 15, at the Angler’s Gift and Tackle. The Barriere course was hosted by Lower North Thompson Learning & Literacy, with Bradley generously not charging for his time, and all proceeds from the day being donated to the North Thompson Fish and Game Club.  Everyone who participated said they enjoyed the afternoon and were happy with the skills they learned.  Even those with previous casting experience stated that they had learned new skills. Mo Bradley, a Kamloops resident, was presented this past January with a Canadian Recreational Fisheries Award for his work in promoting sustainable recreational fishing. Check upcoming issues of the STAR/JOURNAL for a regular column by Mo Bradley on fly-tying. The column will be brought to our readers by Lower North Thompson Learning & Literacy.
