No doubt everyone will be relieved to see that the blog is back up and running!!!
I had lots of you messaging me why the blog stopped in July, the reason being I just didn't have time to do everything!!!! My fly-tying business has taken off in a big way and I had to give up something, unfortunately it was the blog, there wasn't enough hours in the day but hopefully this season I can continue throughout the season even if it's just a weekly report in the summer.
Ian Fraser making a start on the new fence at the Bridge pool Ballogie
New season = Lots of news.........
As usual we have been busy on the riverbanks, however the weather hasn't really helped us out very much! Heavy rain and high water doesn't make for great conditions when working on the banks but we managed a week after the Christmas and New Year break and then the snow started! We had 17" in 1 day so, again, we had to abandon riverbank work.
The bank at Commonty just above the Garden pool before we started work.
And the finished job! This bit will be good in very high water. The fish lie in close to our side and before we did this it was a very tricky wade to get out past the leaning trees so you could cast safely without hitting the overhanging branches.
