Well finally, after a very long wait, a salmon was caught on our beat by Davy Dobbie! The catch will be recorded on the river catch section as soon as possible. Well done to Davy!!! The river seems to be doing well this week with many salmon being caught mostly further up the river by Stuart, Kevin and Davy. We have all got our fingers crossed that the salmon catches will continue but please remember all salmon must be returned due to the catch and release policy on the river at the moment. Our very own Susannah had a wee try at the river coached by her dad and Grampa and she was very proud to tell us all she caught a Rainbow!! This may be the start of a new hobbie for Susannah.
The ponds have been doing well with Bill MacKenzie and his 3lbs 12oz trout caught with a 'Corixa Nymph' holding the title until this morning when Willie Carrol took the top again with his 4lbs 2oz caught on a 'Daddy long-legs' from the Inverawe. Neil MacRitchie has been holding the heaviest bag for a couple of weeks now at 8lbs 3oz all caught on the Inverawe. Please remember to check the board in the bothy when your fishing and if you can top it tell us!! The fishing lessons have been very popular the last few weeks which is good to see.
Hydro Loch closed - This will be closed on Friday the 14th August amd Saturday the 15th due to a private booking.
Inverawe has been kept going the last few weeks with lots of visitors at the moment we are doing a Treasure hunt for children under 12 years this costs £1.50 and takes roughly half an hour, all children must be supervised at all times as you will be walking close to water.
