Week of the 19th June
We had low water all week at Braelangwell so the Sykes party did quite well with their total of 2 salmon 2 grilse and 2 sea trout.
Jaimie Corke got the party off the mark with a 3lb grilse from the Upper Washerwonan on Wednesday. On Thursday Liliana Sykes caught a 8lb salmon from the neck of Shepherds, by this time it was minus 14 on the gauge. On Saturday Mark Butler caught a grilse at the tail of Keepers then after dinner on the back of a slight rise Jonathan Sykes caught a salmon that was estimated to be around 25lb from just under the Morail falls which took him to the backing and ran down to the main body of the Morail.
The sea trout were caught after dinner with a lot of activity on the Monday night then it went quiet but the party did see a lot of them jumping the Morail falls on the Wednesday afternoon.
