Yes Hamish ....... and last time we booked it everything went "pear shaped" due to heavy rain and high water :z10

Another "must do" in the near future methinks :wink

Best wishes

Hello

Just back from two weeks holiday abroad and was too busy just before we went so I am about a month out of date with the conditions at Kildrummy. So far this year I have caught one kelt. April was slow, thin hatches and no fish showing or even looking at a spider. I would guess it will have improved in May but I have not had a look at the river and I have no idea how the hatches are going just now. If the caddis have started coming off I would guess an evening would be more productive than the day time but that's just a guess. It will be next weekend before I get a chance myself.

Sorry I can't be more help.

Irvine

Was at Kildrummy last  week. Had 7 fish between ½ lb and 2 ½ lb on an olive kinkhamer. Don’t fish blind. Walk the river looking for risers. I used to fish at Arduncart a fair bit and it was terrific but when I phoned last week I was told that the fishing has been sold to a private syndicate and there were no day tickets available anymore. No matter, Kildrummy is even better and still easy to get access to.

Useful fishing info Uli  :cool: You might like to know limited day tickets for trout are available for Ardhuncart, I am waiting to hear back from the syndicate with contact details at the moment  :z16
