    This past week for us at Cairnton and Middle Blackhall was another good one with 3 Salmon and 5 Grilse being landed. A few others were lost and were most likely grilse. There were a fair few variety of flies that were doing the trick from Sunrays to Ally's and Cascades, down to very sparse size 20 Stoat Tails with both banks producing. The water height all week was pretty good, there was a bit of a rise on Tuesday evening which did carry a bit of peat stain that remained the rest of the week. The water temperature was ranging from high 50 to mid 60 Fahrenheit but what was against us was the heatwave that most of the country was enjoying with cloudless skies and daytime highs into the 70s.

    This coming week looks like some showers about and more comfortable conditions.

    We have rods available on both banks this coming week so please check the website for availability and booking details.

    Cheers Brian
