Report: I really must apologise for the lack of a recent report----------I have been so busy counting the numbers of fish in the Estuary, waiting to access the river!!!
Despite low water conditions, and not the best of atmospherics, we have been fishing incredibly well with most beats producing almost on a daily basis.
I had the pleasure of taking my eight year old Grandson Ryan out for a bit of trout fishing one evening and he is really casting well. On landing his second trout I suggested to him that, as I was his Ghillie, I should get a tip. After a little while he said, " Grandad, I have your tip----------------- if you keep your hands in your pockets that will stop your fingers from geetting very cold"!!! I really do hope that this was entirely innocent and not schooling by that Father of his!!
