Title: Delgatie Castle Trout Fishery report w/e 29/11/14
Post by: The Aul Troot on 30/11/2014 at 13:11
As suggested last week the weather has settles during this week but temperatures have remained unseasonably high and light conditions have been variable with lo cloud and drizzle predominating. This has resulted in the fish feeding habits being a bit unpredictable and has necessitated the anglers to chase the fish through the water column. As expected at this time of year lures rule supreme but the method of fishing is variable with anglers enjoying success on floating and sinking lines with variable retrieves.
This weeks top catches went to J Abel, Fraserburgh who on three visits, netted a total of 48 fish on Montana, Cat's Whisker, Bloodworm and Blobs. Other recorded catches this week were; M Stewart, Methlick, 16 fish, (Montana), K Reid, Gardenstown, 13 fish, (Green Montana), J Mackay, Macduff, 11 fish, (Green/Brown Fritz), K Armstrong, Fraserburgh, 11 fish, (Yellow Fritz), M Donald, Peterhead, 10 fish, (Cat's Whisker), A Murray, Gardenstown, 10 fish, (Green Fritz), L Davidson, Macduff, 9 fish, (Nomad), B Cresswell, Macduff, 8 fish, (WSW).
