Last 2 weeks of the season
The Jupp party arrived for the week of the 17th September with high hopes with a forecast full of rain for a change. They weren’t disappointed catching 27 salmon for their week. The best day produced 12, 5 to Alan Lutman’s rod. The river was running from 1’6″ down to 6″ and the water temp had dropped to 50f putting the fish on the take.
Top rod for the week was Alan Lutman with 7 then Stewart Walker with 5. Stuart also had the best fish of the week with a 20lber from Gruinards run. The party also take Dounie which is a beat further down the Carron where they caught 12 for their week there.
We also hear there were over 80 salmon caught between the 2 Amat beats above us giving the river a total of over 150 for the week.
The week of the 24th produced 9 and a couple of sea-trout for the Miller party. They had similar conditions but the fish weren’t quite as enthusiastic to take a fly. The host, Paddy Miller caught 4 for the week with 3 of them on Monday.
