With only hours remaining to the official opening day of our new season, excitement is building.

Over the winter period we spend a lot of the time on the spawning grounds and this year has been one of the better ones in recent years. We love to study Salmon behaviour and as an angler and guide you can learn a lot at this time of year that helps in the open season. Every winter i am so impressed the way these outstanding species communicate with one and other and again this year has be no exception.

When spawning season comes to a close, we pound the river banks to observe Kelts (Post Spawning Salmon) breaking the water on their slow migration down river and also with the hope of witnessing the sight of the first fresh spring Salmon sticking his head up to say hello.

Over the years we have witnessed fresh run spring Salmon surfacing as early as January 1st this year we have done such on the third week of January and this always gives you that special feeling inside that only an angler will understand.

Forecast on the run up to our opening day Saturday 1st of February is mixed with rain due in early Friday morning. Depending on where this rain hits the catchment chances are we will have a chance to wet line.

As it stands our opening day we are now fully booked but at this moment we have some availability for Sunday 2nd.

We look forward to welcoming you all that visit us throughout the angling season of 2020 and we wish you tight lines.
