Amfc

[parrot]

Finding myself with some more time next year (probably), I have signed up to do a couple of AMFC comps with one of my clubs. This is my first foray into the competition world, beyond club comps. I am “told” that the AMFC is friendly, sociable and a good way to learn.

Any thoughts or advice from those who have fished these series?

Thanks.

I fished a few of those back in the day. You fish with one of your team, so as long as you get on with that person it should be friendly and sociable. I think, too, they are a bit more relaxed about fly sizes.

Oh no you don't!!

...and flies are international lochstyle rules.
... but yes friendly and sociable.

Oh yes we did! Fishery rules as regards fly sizes back then. May well have changed since, but I DO know what we were using which were mostly international rules flies but not exclusively. And we did fish as pairs from the same team.
