Post by: The Aul Troot on 01/05/2016 at 13:42
The past week has seen little improvement in weather conditions with Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday being almost unfishable due to high winds and the accompanying low temperatures. From Thursday the conditions improved and some good fishing was enjoyed with a mixture of lures and buzzers being most successful although several fish succumbed to a dry fly presentation. Temperatures are indicated to improve in the coming week and hopefully the arrival of May will herald settled, seasonable conditions. Accordingly the fishery has extended closing time til 9pm for May provided light and conditions permit. The best recorded catches this week fell to; A Murray, Gardenstown, 25 fish over several visits, (black fritz, white fritz), P Cowie, Fraserburgh, 14 fish, (dry fly, buzzers, WSW), G Chiperton, 13 fish, (black WSW), R Hambly, Inverurie, 10 fish, (Black WSW), B Wiseman, Fraserburgh, 11 fish, (buzzers, black fritz), B Cresswell, Macduff, 10 fish, (nomad), I Burnett, Fraserburgh, 7 fish, (cat's whisker, yellow dancer), N Thomson, Turriff, 7 fish, (buzzers), K Fraser, Greeness, 7 fish, (black buzzers), A Cresswell, Macduff, 6 fish, (black buzzers).
