The Helmsdale struggled to produce last week but it was no surprise under the bright and hot conditions. The river was low and anglers fishing early & late did the most damage. I doubt if there were more than 20 off including the Association water as many rods blanked for the week. But, the river was blessed with 2ft of fresh water on Sunday so hopefully a great week ahead....

On a more positive not, we have added some more great looking flies to our New Collection especially the Naked Alistair gold Patriot doubles below, These are absolutely perfect for droppers on small rivers or a single fly and run on sizes 6, 8, 10 & 12. Grab some here whilst in stock! http://www.helmsdalecompany.com/rs-naked-alistair-ghillies-choice.html

New RS Naked Alistair - no body, just the bright gold hook which adds maximin durability. Real JC and the award winning Patriot hook.
