everybody kept talking about Ed Knight. When I finally met him in a wine bar (it was the Nineties!), I could see why. It sounds like a cliche, but it really was “eyes across a crowded room” stuff.

Ed Knight will help anglers repair pinholes in their waders or provide information on how to do it at home. Beginning at 7 p.m. visitors can sit in on their choice of three 45-minute skills sessions.
