Welcome to Orkney Trout Fishing 2012
The OTFA is a non-profit making voluntary body dedicated to the preservation
and enhancement of game fishing throughout the Orkney Islands. At a time
when natural habitats are under continual threat and pressure, the continuation
of
the OTFA's work is of paramount importance to both local and visiting angler
to ensure that the rich heritage of Orkney trout fishing has a future as
bright as it's past.
The work of the Association in the furtherance of this aim includes:
o The operation of a hatchery which using local stock provides for many
of Orkney's less productive waters.
o The provision of riparian sites with access and boat launching facilities
on the main trout fishing lochs. Most of these sites also provide shelter,
piers, car parking and toilet amenities.
o Maintaining a watching brief over all the trout fishing lochs in the county,
supporting all efforts that benefit our sport and opposing all measures
which are a direct threat to the trout fishing
Troot in the Shed 2012
"Troot in the Shed 2012" has kicked in again and this year, with four schools on board; the two in (Stronsay and Sanday)with Antoine Pietri as well as KGS (with Neil Ewing running the project there) and Dounby Primary, where Malcolm Thomson did the presentation and helped with the setting-up of the tank and the ova.
Altogether, we're probably speaking about 100 bairns directly involved in the project and checking the eggs on a daily basis.
