Blackwater Lodge - Struck by Lightning
Blackwater Lodge - Struck by Lightning

No - this doesn't refer to my ability to hook salmon.

Yesterday, the Lodge was struck by lightning which knocked out our digital phone system completely. This means that both our phone & fax numbers are out of action at present,
and even though you hear it ringing when you try to call - you won't get through. It's bad timing, as there are a lot of people getting in contact to book for the coming season.
September is filling fast, and there's a lot more interest in spring fishing and of course
the early summer as we go into our second season with no drift nets.
Obviously, our email is still working as we are on satellite broadband connection not land-line.
Email, mobile phone or Skype are the only way to contact us until probably early next week.
We are promised by the phone company that it will be repaired on Monday but...................!

Don't forget to keep an eye on the Fishing Report page if you have a password.
A good flood hit the river this morning which should help to get the kelts out of the river
and encourage the first of the spring run to move in in the run-up to Opening Day on February 1st.
Best Regards & Tight Lines!

MyFlyBox will help you to express yourself, catch up with friends and make new ones, but please do remember that what you post publicly can be read by anyone viewing your profile, so please follow the guidelines below when using MyFlyBox:-

  • Don't forget that your profile, like all the others, is on public display.
  • Don't post anything you don’t want seen (e.g., phone numbers, address, IM address, or your location).
  • Don't post anything that could embarrass you later. 
  • Don’t post anything that makes it easy for strangers to find you (e.g.  location of home, cafes, clubs etc)
  • People aren't always who they say they are.
  • Be careful about adding people you don’t actually know to your friends list.
  • It's great to make new MyFlyBox friends from all over, but avoid actually meeting people whom you do not already know.
  • If you decide to meet someone you’ve engaged with on MyFlyBox, tell your parents or relatives first, meet in a public place and bring a trusted adult friend with you.
  • It's easy to think that only people you know are looking at your MyFlyBox page, but remember that everyone can see it. 
  • Think very carefully before you post a photo or information you wouldn't want others to see.
  • Harassment, inappropriate speech and inappropriate content must be reported. If you feel someone's behaviour is not appropriate, do something. Talk with a trusted adult, or report it to MyFlyBox or to the relevant authorities.
