Very close Noel, tempted to give you this but not quite right  :wink  So close in fact you've hit the woodwork.

Think a wee bit further down the system.

Seems like a reasonable guess to me, never did fish it or Merkland when the folks lived at Lairg  :z10

We could solve the "tinypic" hosting issue that some computers have with viewing photos, by hosting the photos directly on the forum if you would all prefer that? I could set up a section in the "GALLERY" specifically for this if you wish?

It would involve uploading your photo in to a new GALLERY section that I would set up and once uploaded, you could view your photo in the GALLERY and right click on the photo to copy the "image URL" and then paste this in your post :wink

Any thoughts folks?

Cheers
Mike

No problems from me Mike, it would be good for all to see the pics.  As long as it's not too much work.

My guess is the Thurso or Forss by the way.

Cheers Hamish, the Caithness backdrop was a wee bit of a clue and narrowed down to one of three waters (my next guess was going to be the Wick, although it looked too big for this water in anything but a heavy spate)

Have you ever noticed that the Thurso is a crackin troot stream?  Paying a bit heavy to fish it for troots mind.  Eddie McCarthy's lot net the troots out and relocate in 'a Cherigull (sp), Eun and Dinne Go (Local name, just check out the closest Gaelic equilivent  :z4)
Well at least they claim to do this  :roll

Was offered a shot on the Upper Thurso for troots some time back but sadly missed out as, by the time i'd got round all the other waters i was reporting on it was time to head home again  :cry

Anyway, as i'm at my work computer just now please feel free to play a joker lads, otherwise you'll all have to wait 'till i get home again later.
