Catches.
Today recorded the New Best Day of the Season. Eighteen fish to 8lb. were caught. Seven fell to spinner & nine to the fly as the water is fining off to superb order.
Prospects.
Absolutely superb as
the river is fining off & there is an excellent run of grilse & a
number of double figure fish are being seen as well. Almost all the fish caught
(even on the topmost beats) on our waters were extremely fresh.
