6 fish off & Auction result

Ronald Sutherland

The River eased up to 6 fish in the book last week. In an unsettled week with copious amounts of water Borrobol ghillie Glen Macdonald got the ball rolling with a super 15 pounder yet again from Salscraggie. A large Monkey tube fished deep and square on a full Carron Jetstream did the trick just below the burn. It was Friday before another fish appeared and it was a carbon copy 15 pounder, this time from George Maclean in Kilphedir pool. Achentoul rods then ended the week on a high with fine sea liced 12 pounder from the Park pool beat 2.
Heavy rain has set up the week ahead and with all rods let and a full complement of ghillies back in action we should see a few more fish off....
Don't forget we are still on a buy 3 get 1 free on all flies so stock up when you have the chance!
Tighters.
