André Miegies is working for some five weeks now at the fly-fishing department of Fauna Hengelsport in Raamsdonkveer and the changes are clearly noticeable already. A lot more firms and products have been added to the inventory, for fly-fishing and fly-tying, and the whole section looks nice and clean.
