First Fish of 2022...

Our first fish of the season has been landed by Scott H in the Bridge Pool.

Scott estimated his fish at around 13lbs.

Our second fish was landed by Steve, a 10lber from the Cauld Hole.

Our third fish was landed by Tammy W, a 9lber from the Bridge Pool. Tammy also landed our first Sea-Trout of the season, a 5lber, again from the Bridge Pool.

Away we go with a 2 and a 1...

After a nice rise of water on Wednesday night and a falling river today Steve decided it was time to down tools and have a cast.

Steve invited a couple of friends down to fish and they were all rewarded for their efforts.

Steve led the way with our first fish of the season, a 12lber from the Weaver. Tommy W then followed with a lovely fresh 10lber, again from the Weaver and Paul L, landed a 5lbs Sea-Trout from the Clure.

All returned, well done lads.

Off the Mark...

After a rise in the river after the thunderstorms I am pleased to report the we have been able to blow the dust from the catch record book today and enter 3 fish.

Starting us off was, you guested it, Mr Dickson. Steve landed and returned a 11lb Salmon in The Clure.

Our second Salmon was landed by Scott H in The Weaver, a 12lber and our third fish, a 6lbs Sea-Trout for Paul L in The Bishop's. All fish returned

Looking at the records, the last time we caught a Salmon and Sea-Trout in July was back in 2004.

Well done gentlemen.

Website problems....

We are having some problems with the website as the company who hosts the website has moved us onto a new server which has caused some problems with the Bookings page. We are working on it and expect everything to be running again very soon.
