    Another really good week for us with 15 landed up to 16lb, a few being lost and the usual pecks and pulls which didn't hang on. Again this week fish were fairly well spread throughout the beat and all in really good condition and mostly all fresh with a couple being in for no more than a week. Worthy mentions are Tom Turnbull with 3 fish to 16lb on Tuesday. Cairnton veterans(distinguished) Mike Richardson 4 to 14lb and James Madden 4 to 14lb for their week plus William Thompson landing his very first, a 5lb grilse from Invercannie.  Flies that were doing the trick were Ghillie's, Flamethrowers, Monkeys and small Phatagorva bottle tubes.

    Water heights were 1' 9" on Monday and finishing at 9" on Saturday.  Water temperatures were 56f/60f.

    Cheers Brian

    Another good week
