Water was low and catches slowed down from the good start we experienced in early April.
However some fish were taken and a lovely 26lb fish was returned during the last competition.
Even with the slow catches, FAA have had over 30 fish this Spring which is almost double that of previous years. It is judged that only 6 fish have been retained and all within the accepted levels for the Association waters.
May brings in the changes to the retained fish regulations when,depending on size and location of pool, one fish per day is allowed.
Salmon are being seen coming into the Findhorn bay and appear to be having a free ride into the river as the seals are feeding further out to sea at present.
There appears to be very few Finnock within the Findhorn bay at present which may also be preventing the seals following them into the estuary.
