Weekly Report – week ending Aug 29th

This week saw our catches almost double that of the previous one! Of the 16 fish landed, 90% were sea-liced and over 60% were grilse. We also had our 6th fin-clipped (hatchery) fish. The lions-share of the catches went to one party – Malcolm Newbould & co, with 11 salmon and grilse…..a fantastic result from a team of very talented fishers. The Snead and Sefton parties managed 4 between them, while the Singer party landed 1 and lost a few. Top rod was Graham Ritchie with 6 fish landed and 2 lost……well done Graham. With water levels almost perfect for most of the week(6-12inches, rising to 3ft on Tuesday), beats 2 and 3 seem to be holding most fish, however, as we progress into September beats 1 & 4 will start to pickup again. It was also pleasing to hear that we had our first fish(since 2007) from Big Stone on beat 4…..it fishes well from the right bank at current water levels….and well worth a go! It was also good to see a fish being taken from one of the new lies in Lower Camisky.

The weather looks settled for the next few days so river levels should be steady. Sea-liced fish are still entering the system so a sustained effort from our rods next week should hopefully get a few more fish on the bank.
