Title: Haddo Today
Post by: Mike Barrio on 13/02/2009 at 20:32

Hi folks :cool:

Here are a few photos that I took at Haddo today. As you can see, the loch is frozen solid and there is quite a bit of snow around. Plenty of otter prints all over the place :z4

Best wishes
Mike

A wee bit of fun never goes amiss :z4 What have you bought? Sounds good for the hill lochs.

Looks like things are getting milder as the week goes on, plus we can get the log fire going and the kettle on :wink

Cheers

Bought an Orvis frequent flyer 8ft 6" 3wt midflex with a battenkill bbs111 loaded with a snowbee wf3,as a used kit together from another forum. Good for Ireland trips and other holidays(SA) i hope. Had a play in the back garden the night i bought it, felt really nice but was 2 dark to see much :z4
Am dying to try it properly.
