Final flurish on the Don....
went out on Friday and fished kemnay without any joy. Lost either a small grilse , or a trout. Went to kintore in the afternoon but the wind got up so it was horrid
went back for a final hour at kemnay and got a spanking fresh 5 1/2 lber
Back for a few hours on Sat and lost one after about 5 casts
thought i would have a last 1/2 hour at kintore in the afternoon
was a chap on the opposite bank at the millers fishing the fly
i wanted to work down the pool so stood on the opposite bank so i could work down the pool. For those who know me i am not rude so i was cleary not going to cast the rapala accross at him
anyways, i get growled at and told i had better not
dispite me saying very politely that i was in no way going to interfere with his fishing a bit of a rant started from his side so i sidled off.....2 mins last he walks off on the phone
a minute after that 2 lads turn up in a while astra and site in the little pull-in opposite the golf club - engin running
i start to think 'oh-oh'
i though it time to leave
as i walk towards the astra it roared away
i may have got it wrong but i did get a nasty feeling about the whole thing
Unlike many at kintore i work down the pool, don't cut in etc etc and most of all i am polite . I may give kintore a miss next year and try elsewhere....
Is it possible to buy a season ticket just for alford ?
