Had a very wet Friday morning, which brought the river up to almost 3ft, it was very peaty and frothy yesterday, that's probably why we didn't catch anything, saw a few, so prospects better for next week. We had two new boys to salmon fishing for the last three days. While fishing the Spout, just before lunch, I saw a grilse lying at the bottom of the pool, I told him to try for it, the first time the fly went past the fish moved away but came back, the next time a perfect surface take, it was a 3lb grilse, well done Rob, His brother Geordie was not so fortunate, he tried very hard fishing late into Saturday night,but no luck, better luck the next time. Its great to see young people taking up salmon fishing. I am on holiday for the next two weeks, no where exciting, putting a new roof on my house, normally I am wanting rain, but I hope it doesn't rain for a while. Might not be a report for the next two weeks. | ||
