At last some water and fish


Conditions have improved markedly; some showers at the end of last week brought the river up to a foot by the weekend, we had 4 fish on the Friday, including 2 to visitor Mr Jones (15lb and 8 lb). Another on Saturday was reported and then 3 fish yesterday (Monday), with another visitor, Mr Scott, accounting for two of these (12lb and 10lb). Most of the fish have been coloured, however, the bigger water yesterday, at about 1’5”, saw lots of fish running, and quite a few of these were very fresh, briefly heading and tailing as they ran upstream. 

At last we have had a proper big water this morning (Tuesday), with it showing over 3 feet on the Peebles gauge – this will give the fishing a great boost, and we anticipate some decent sport in the coming weeks, if it remains settled with the odd shower to keep things moving.
