1 fish today

Despite gale force winds and our first leaf fall of the autumn, Iain Bain managed to take a fish of around 7lbs from the Castlehaugh Cheek today. A slightly coloured cock fish, Iain sportingly returned it. Water has risen 7' from yesterday (the guage shows 10" & rising tonight), and steady showers have been moving in from the north west all day, so let's hope this will herald some proper fresh water to draw in more of those big autumn run fish. If we get water for next week, this should provide good fishing.
