Week of the 8th of May
The Jupp party landed 13 salmon for the week.
With minus 10″ on the gauge Dave Barnfield started proceedings with a 15.5lber from the neck of the Morail before breakfast on Monday morning.
On Wednesday the river rose to 1ft 6″ and 8 were landed, 4 while it was rising and 4 late in the day as it started to drop. Two came from Kennel run, 5 from the Morail and 1 from Millers. Dave Barnfield caught 2, Alan Lutman caught 3, Rick Verbeeten caught 2 and Nick Jupp 1.
On Thursday 3 were landed. Nick Jupp caught the first at 6.15 am from the Morail and Dave Barnfield had one from Frenchmans and another from Burnmouth.
On Friday Rick Verbeeten caught the last fish of the week at 7.30 am from Frenchmans. After that, it all went quiet.
Strangely we didn’t land a fish below Kennel run !!
