With light fishing pressure, there has been steady, if unspectacular catches. Water has been up and down constantly, on the few occasions it has settled, fish have been caught.
On 18 September, Nick Armstead had 2 fish from Rumbler and then on 21st Andy MacLauchlan had 2 sea trout from Nutwood and Rumbler.
Ian Bain took a grilse from Rumbler on 28 September and Brian Davidson had the beat's biggest so far with a 17 pounder from Rumbler (pictured above).
Mr Crawford had 3 fish on 2 October, from various pools, and on Saturday 6th October the beat produced 5 fish. Brian Davidson had a 6 pounder, Mr Bissett had 2 at 4lb and 6lb from Nutwood, and Mr Craig had a 10 pounder from Dirtpot. Iain Bain also took a nice fish of 12lb from Nutwood.
Prospects are good. There seem to be plenty of fish about, but there are very few showing; so do not be put off by lack of splashing fish. Despite the good water, there seems to be a paucity of fresh fish about, these will not be long in arriving as reports suggest new fish are now coming in further downriver, and at this time of year it does not take them long to arrive on Upper Tweed.
