    This’s was a week of two halves.

    At the start of the week the river was at a lovely height on the cairnton gauge. 2’8” & carrying some colour and dropping. 

    I was disappointed we only managed a few kelts for the first part of the week. 

    The later part of the week wasn’t let. So I managed too fish myself. Thursday morning the weather turned nasty with a frost in the morning, and an upstream wind that proved challenging with no reward . 

    Friday morning the river was in good condition 2’2”  with a little Colour from the mid week rise. 

    The water temperature dropped to 37°f.  I started to fish at Middle Ferroch, fished it down to the lower Ferroch but no offers. 

    Malt steep at Middle Blackhall was at the perfect height. I fished the pool with with a floating line with a extra super fast tip and an inch and a quarter Brass willie gunn.  As i reached the tail end of the pool i struck lucky with a 8lb fresh Spring salmon. 

    On Saturday Morning Andy Ashcroft fished the beat. After a cup of tea I sent Andy over  to start in Malt steep he was rewarded with a cracking fresh 8lb spring salmon. Using a floating line with a 6ips tip and his favourite willie gunn.  Well done to that man.

    Here’s hoping next week we get off to a good start.

    This was a week of two halves. The first part of the week was sunny and warm.The warm weather encouraged the daffodils and crocuses to burst into life throughout the beat. 

    Middle of the week we  had frosty conditions which helped keep the water temperature down. By the tail end of the week the temperature started to warm up again to 43.5°f. 

    This was a frustrating week as we only managed a handful of kelts. 

    On Monday David Water caught a kelt from the Cottage pool, using a floating line with an extra superfast sink tip and a dee monkey. 

    I landed a kelt from old garden using a floating line with a fast sink tip and Willie gun. 

    Norwegian Fisher Hakon Heskja fished Cairnton hard for 4 days. He was rewarded with 2 well mended Kelts from the Grey Mare. Using floating line with 6ips tip.  

    Fingers crossed we get some rain over the next few days.

    This week started off frustrating due the an up steam wind & rise in the  water through the start of the week. 

    By Thursday the wind died down & the river dropped to 2ft 2inch.

    The beat started fishing well.

    The water temperature shot up to 42°f, not what I wanted at this time of year. But news up & down the Dee valley was that a few Sea liced fish were being caught & were on the move.  

    I fished Wednesday afternoon on Middle Blackhall. I landed a kelt and had a good pull in the hot spots using a floating line with a 7 ips sink tip, with a yellow monkey.

    We ended up with 10 kelts from both banks. 

    Andy Ashcroft got the beat off to a start. By landing a 8lb springer from Middle Blackhall 

    caught around 11.30am on an inch and a quarter gold Willie Gunn, floater & a 10ft 6 Ips tip. 

    I seen a few fish heading & tailing  throughout the beat on Saturday but no joy. Fingers crossed for next week. 

    We have availability this week contact myself

    This was a disappointing week due to frustrating winds & a rise in water through the tail end of the week. We ended up with 20 kelts from both banks.

    I invited the marketing manager of LTS Mark Paterson down for a cast on Friday & Saturday as we had a spare rod.

    Ken Reid & Gary Scott fished the beat hard and managed a kelt each, landed in Middle & Upper Ferroch. 

    I was delighted to meet  the ghillie from Balmoral, David Fernie, who was fishing with us on Saturday. David lost a fish in Middle Ferroch & had a few more pulls. He was using a floating line with a fast sink tip. 

    Andy Ashcroft & Grahame Reid fished Middle Blackhall & Cairnton for the week &

    managed a few kelts out of malt steep and middle & lower Ferroch. 

    Here’s hoping this little rise will pull fish in from below. 

    We have availability this week contact myself
