The kyle of Sutherland rivers opened today.

We had a westerly breeze and the gauge was only reading minus 7″. The air temp was 48f (9c) and the water a ridiculously warm 41f (5c) There is one rod out for a couple of hours at Braelangwell today.

What a difference from the opening day of 2010 when there was 16 inches of ice on the Morail shown in the photo with Finlay fishing Eskimo style on the Morail.
