Perfect Conditions

Weather here has been superb - in otherwords, lots of RAIN !!!. River is now at its perfect height, and fish are arriving in numbers.

Yesterday I was out in the boat just as the tide was coming in and the fish finder was going crazy - looking into the water at the mouth of the sea loch I could see salmon in numbers making their way towards the river. More rain is forecast, and as soon as I get rid of other business, I will be hitting the river. Shoukld manage with the 11 ft rod, but will take 13ft double hander just in case.

Munro Killer
Willie Gun

No reports of fish from Ardtornish guests yet as factor is away. River and main lochs will however have a good head of fresh fish. Some spaces available on River next week, but going fast !!
