    Quite a difficult week with low water and the fish being very dour. On some days the weather was very hot with a bright blue sky but I think we did reasonably well considering with 5 fish and 1 sea trout landed.  Andy Ashcroft had a grilse of 3.5lb from Floating Bank on Monday on a Cascade followed by a 3lb grilse in the Grey Mare on Thursday on a Sunray. Alan Catney had a 2.5lb sea trout from the Spout the same day in blazing sunshine and it was looking like that was the way the week would end up however Brandon Bryant had a brace of 8lb a piece late on Saturday afternoon, one from the Upper Ferroch and the other in the Spout, both were on a deeply fished on Red Francis. There was also a 15lber landed later on, again on a Red Francis in Potters.

    This coming week looks as though there's a light band of rain coming from the west tonight then fairly dry for a few days until Thursday when there is the potential of some rain in the latter stages of the week.
