Free Trout Fly Fishing Day for Young People

Date: Saturday 30 May 2026

Jedburgh Rotary Club is inviting young people under the age of 16 to take part in a free day of trout fly fishing at Upper Hass Loch.

Whether completely new to fishing or already experienced, everyone is welcome. All instruction and equipment can be provided, making this a great opportunity to try something new in a supportive environment.

The day is made possible thanks to the generosity of the Jedforest Angling Association and promises to be an enjoyable outing for the whole family.
