NASF is holding its usual annual fund raising auction, but due to time constraints and a desire to spread the offer more widely, this year it will be held live on eBay.co.uk from 1-11 December. For those who prefer, they will accept postal bids as well.
According to Orri Vigfússon, chairman of the NASF the auction catalogue lists some exciting lots: top class fishing for dorado in tropical Argentina, and at the other end of the country, the huge sea trout of the Rio Gallegos at its best lodge; luxury bonefish in the Bahamas; great opportunities on the Gaula and Laxselva in Norway, the Sela, Laxa i Kjos and Jokla in Iceland, plus the Tweed, Blackwater and Faroes for salmon.

On the trout side there are various top chalkstream offers – much of these fishing lots being on exclusive and very hard to access waters. There are also rods, reels and flies from the best known tackle manufacturers and clay pigeon shooting, and it is possible that extra rods may be available on some beats upon contact with the owners.
The NASF needs continually to raise funds to pay for net buy outs and the ongoing struggle to restore the salmon rivers of the Atlantic to their historical and proper abundance, so it is important that anglers lend a hand by participating in the auction.
