The previous week it looked as though spring may be on the way but this week was like a return to March rather than mid April. The heavy showers and strong winds from the north and west weren't a problem, it was the very low air temperatures which made it a bit more challenging. Water heights were running from 1' 11" to just over 3' and water temperatures 41f/44f. The first half of the week was busier with 2 fish landed and a few offers aswell with the 2nd half a bit quieter.
Stefan Johansson, part of Pontus Gunlycke's fishing party from Sweden managed to land a lovely 8lb er in the Malt Steep on Tuesday on a Black & Orange tube and on Wednesday, Colin Craik managed his first of the season, a lovely liced 9lb er in the Malt Steep on a Garry Dog variant. Colins success came mending the line down stream to speed it up. Well done Colin.
Cheers Brian
