Title: Pro Team Gathering
Post by: Mike Barrio on 20/06/2016 at 09:13
Just back from a Barrio Pro Team weekend at Tinto Trout Fishery and on the Clyde :z16

We had access to some great water on the river Clyde and Munro runs a first class fishery, challenging enough to make it interesting and superb quality fish. We had Brownies, Rainbows, Blues and a cracking Tiger :cool:

Some cracking trout in these lochs :z16 we had all kinds, this was my best Brownie taken on the DHE, very pretty :z12

A lovely place to be as the moon appears

Plenty fish rising to the dry, making for challenging and exciting sport, Mr B got the best of the weekend with this stunning Tiger trout.

We also got some time on the Upper clyde, not as much as i would have liked, but Tinto spoiled us and we had such a good chin wag it was hard to get motivated to get to the river, when we did manage there were some cracking fish hitting the sedges late on.

My First Clyde brownie :z12 well chuffed.

So a great trip and a place i will definatley go back to, many Thanks to Munro for all the great advice and the warm welcome :z18

Cheers

Sandy
