Ian was the Clubs Secretary/Treasurer for 8 years. He will be remembered for his warmth of spirit and the welcome that he gave to new members. Ian was always smiling and cheerful as well as passionate about his fly fishing and fly tying.

Clypse and Kerrowdhoo:
- From late April to November the water levels will be maintained 3 to 4 metres below normal levels.

- Kerrowdhoo will remain empty until Easter.
- No access will be allowed during working hours. (8am to 6pm Mon-Fri, 8am to 2pm Saturday)
- Machinery will be left in the main Clypse car park, so space for parking might be an issue.
Injebreck (West Baldwin):
- Work is due to start soon on the dam wall.
- Water levels will be lowered 3 or 4 feet while the work continues.
- Work will continue until October.
Sulby:

All Moved to Injebreck It has been reported that they have stopped stocking Clypse and Kerrowdhoo. All competitions will be held at Injebreck for the rest of the season. Unless Sulby opens.....but I can't see that happening, can you? |
|
| 12/08/2001 |
Clypse and Kerrowdhoo Empty? There is a possibility that Clypse and Kerrowdhoo will be closing. This is due to the Water Board deciding to drain them to carry out yet more repairs. If this proves to be true then all competitions will be at Injebreck. Unfortunatly I will be on holiday for the next competition and so will not be able to confirm this rumour. Please contact The Roland Westcott Tackle Company for updates. |
|
| 09/07/2001 |
Injebreck Water Levels Water levels at Injebreck have fallen enough so the next scheduled competition can be held, as planned, at Injebreck. Sulby is still closed, so all Sulby specified competitions will be held at Clypse and Kerrowdhoo. |
|
| 21/05/2001 |
New Competition Schedule The first competion went really well. We will now be following the dates as sent out to all members at the start of the season. However, all competitions will be at Clypse and Kerrowdhoo until all the foot and mouth restrictions are lifted. |

|
| 04/05/2001 |
First Competitiom Cancellation Unfortunatly the competition scheduled for the 13/5/2001 will still have to be cancelled, on the recomendation of John Ballard (Fisheries Manager), who belives that the reservoirs will be too busy to accomodate a competition so soon after opening.
An EXTRA competition will be scheduled for 20/5/2001 to make up the number of competitions we can fish in the season. This will be on Clypse & Kerrowdhoo between 2pm and 5pm. I look forward to seeing you all there.
All competitions will be at Clypse & Kerrowdhoo until futher notice. |
