Yesterday was an encouraging change. We had a slow morning
with only 3 fish landed and little other action. This was a surprise as various
pools are beginning to really form. The afternoon picked up however and we had
7 fish with 3 to Richard G fishing up river.
Fresh one to the net |
Finding fish up river has meant we have had a beat switch
and the guys who have never seen the upper river will get a taste of it today.
Let’s hope more fish have moved in to make it a really special end to the
week. The water temperature is back at 6
and the depth on the gauge is -6”. Consequently those fishing heavier tips are
still most often rewarded.
Jack M taking advantage of beautiful post supper fishing |
Middle had a mixed day yesterday. Top rod Yury D had a tough
day whilst others did better. They ended the day on 25 fish including 2 fish caught
at Peartiha during a post supper fishing party with beers and music. I think
the island is still spinning a bit this morning for a few.
Ian W's casual approach to the trip to the white sea |
At Pana they landed 24 fish for the day and the majority
were caught in the now defining pools. The river is dropping away steadily but
a lot of the fish seem to be piling through. The sooner the river gets to it’s
normal level the sooner these pools will hold the fish up. Much the same can be
said for Kitza. However this morning Charlie T went out and started his account
with 2 fish before breakfast.
Vodka Cocktails at the white sea beach club |
Today is warm and sunny again. Our team took a tour to the
white sea before supper last night and had a little drinks party at Kuzamon.
However they were out in double quick time this morning with the knowledge that
fish are showing up river. I have asked them for 30 for the day…
