Praise For Poringland

One of angling’s best known administrators praised Poringland Lakes for its flagship Let’s Go Family Fishing Fun Days.

Mark Casto, also a top specialist angler who helps conserve the Broads fisheries, applauded the popular venue’s initiative to get more youngsters fishing and said: “It’s wonderful to see so many kids catching fish for the first time and the way Poringland is promoting angling in such a positive way to new recruits”.

The fact that everyone leaves with a smile on their face having caught fish proves that fishing is great for families. Find events for your family HERE.

Can’t find an event on Get fishing that fits in with your plans? Then contact Danny and Dave, our Angling Development Officers…
