I had to cancel the previous booking for my Dalmarnock basic course because it clashed with the Easter weekend and virtually no-one could make the dates. By way of a part alternative, Colin still has rods available for the three days 5th 6th & 7th April and I will be around in the mornings to […]

Dalmarnock 28th September 2017
What on earth have we done to deserve this? River shot up this morning to over 5ft and coloured up on heavy rain in the west! A few knocks and bumps whilst fishing the few back eddies we could but in reality it was pretty hopeless. What’s more, the forecast says we are to get […]
Dalmarnock Tay 27th September 2017
Water down to 2ft 6ins and though still 6 ” too high we should have seen fish but other than two half hearted tugs we got zip. Where are all the autumn fish we should be seeing?
Dalmarnock 26th September 2017
Water back to 3ft 3ins on the gauge but at least a bit clearer. We have seen a fair few fish, got one almost to the net and had three more close encounters. Fairly typical of running fish. We need the level down to 2ft and below.
Tay 25th September 2017
Disaster! 24 hrs of lashing rain all Sunday and Sunday night and it was over 4ft on arrival this morning. We saw a couple of fish and one of the rods had a brief encounter but otherwise zip. B…..r it!
Tay and office closed 25th – 30th September
Please note that whilst I am up on the Tay there will only be limited staff available at my office and I apologise for any delay in dispatching orders or responding to queries whilst I am away. For those coming to the Tay, we had a good lift of water last night (Fri) and with […]

Murthly on Tay 7th April 2017
Donald’s comment on the conditions: “If you arrived to fish at this time of year and got these conditions you would think you had won the lottery!” Water 1ft 1ins on Tony’s gauge, 45 degrees, mild and slight cloud, light breeze. So we fished furiously all day for not so much as a pull… until […]
