Season 2012

Week ending May 20th

*What a frustaring week! The rain last Sunday pushed the river up to over 7ft but by Monday lunchtime it was dropping and clearing nicely. Kenny Carr and party had the luck of the draw and were on beat 2, our best high water beat, and managed to pick up 2 lovely fish from the Garrabudhie Stream – 20lb and 12lbs. A 10lber was also taken from Mucomir pool later in the evening. A promising start to the week. However as the wind turned round to the north, temperatures dropped and conditions became very difficult. The fish were still running off the tides but were reluctant to take the fly properly-which is not typical of sealiced fish. Some further rain lifted water levels again on Thursday (2ft 3) and this time Gerry O’Neill and party were in the right spot as fish ran through. Their prize was a lovely sealiced 18lber from the lip of the Falls. Paul McHugh also took advantage of the lift in water and landed a 10lber from Mucomir pool. As the water steadily dropped back the weather changed again on Saturday afternoon and the cold north wind dropped and the air temperature rose. The O’Neill party took full advantage and picked up a 12lber from Golden Burn, Beat 1. The weather seems much more settled this coming week and much warmer. Tides are still big for start of the week so this should continue to bring fish in.
