18.01.2022 As an organisation that has been around for many years, TGALT has had wonderful associations with legends of the Tasmanian fly fishing community. Noel Jetson is... one such legend - a founding member and first life member of TGALT. Although Noel is no longer with us, one of our fond memories is of Noel's much loved Bantam motorbike which has been on display at the Salmon Ponds in recent years. As part of the celebrations associated with the 2019 World Fly Fishing Championships, Tasmania, Australia', TGALT have partnered with our friends at "Pancake at the Ponds" (the cafe at the Salmon Ponds) to pay to give Noel's bike a bit of a spruce up. The guys at Tandam Car Care & Auto Parts.at New Norfolk have the work under way and it will shortly be back on display, hopefully in the Museum at the Salmon Ponds.

09.01.2022 The Sth Esk River at Clarendon Estate (Fly Fishing Museum) is undergoing some rehabilitation with native plants replacing willows, blackberry, elder and Hawthor...n. The plant selection and disribution has considered waterflow, floods, fly-fishers backcasts, and endemic species. Sedges, reeds and grasses are close to the water edge and trees/larger shrubs are up high on the banks. Where tea-tree has been recommended, they are clumped together to form a thicket. It is an expensive process but the aim is to keep heading upsteam with the rehab. If you want to be part of it, you can come and help plant some trees on Saturday June 15th.
