Much better fishing, and good size fish being taken, FAA must be in the 30 plus now, which although seems low, is good for this time of year.
Grilse running all day and along with them are some nice big Salmon.
Sea trout fishers (few) had an exceptional week with average Sea trout of 2.5lbs being caught. Where they came from is anyone’s guess but most welcome. Fantastic sport was had in the dark with fish of 3-4lbs taken. This is strange for Findhorn as the average over the last 10 years has been around the 1.5lb mark. Sea Trout of 3-4 lbs is great fishing.
Mackerel returned to the estuary to allow fish to run the river and many big fish being seen in the Findhorn bay.
As our last report, fish seem to be caught where there is a resting place, rock or fallen tree being the prime sights.
Visitors are down from last year but it is hoped that our friends will return around July onwards to reunite with the members of FAA.
Our web site has been altered to include the permit rules which will allow visitors to learn the rules on each pool prior to arrival. Our new web is run by Jimmy Stephen who has spent a great deal of time bringing it up to speed.
The Flood Alleviation works begin in Sept for two years.
