Casting in the Park (CITP) – Sunday Weekend Sessions
Casting in the Park (CITP) was established in 2014 by Rodfishers’ life member and Certified Casting Instructor (CCI) Andrew McKenzie and is held most Sundays, mid-afternoon at Karuah Park, off Eastern Road, Turramurra.
Andrew, along with Chris Blyth, also a CCI, welcome members and their guests to attend. Fly casting instruction for the beginner to more advanced is offered. CITP is supported by Rodfishers and anyone looking to join the Society is encouraged to attend and learn in a very welcoming environment.
