It’s been a very good seven days and we have had 3 cracking fish since my last update on Sunday, despite water conditions becoming relatively low.
Keith Pilkington had a 9lbs8ozs fish off the Rock Pool yesterday morning. The fish was taken on a Green and Black tube at 9.20am. It was netted by Keith’s long time fishing partner Peter Morrison who did according to Keith attempt to knock the fish off a couple of times but failed to do so and landed the fish safely.
This morning Laurence Lock landed a beautiful 12lbs9ozs fish as seen in photo. It was taken in the Rock Pool with the river at 20. The fly was once again a Mediator. Laurence has now landed 3 fish in 4 days which is pretty impressive at this stage of the season.
This afternoon Stewart Woodhead landed a 10lbs8ozs fish from the Rock Pool again, 10 minutes after he started to fish on a Dundee United.
The river is still at 20 and hopefully we will get a top up in the next few days. There is still some availability up till and including Friday.
