Post by: The Aul Troot on 29/05/2016 at 16:34
The first half of the past week has seen the continuation of the weather patterns of the past few weeks with a northerly / north easterly breeze accompanied by lower than average temperatures, thereafter the air temperatures rose culminating in a warm 19 degrees on Saturday with accompanying bright sunshine. Altogether the conditions continued to unsettle the fish and anglers were successful when they were prepared to alter depth and retrieve using tackle from dry flies to blobs. The most successful anglers for the week were; A Murray, Gardenstown, 35 fish over several visits, (white nomad, budgie), P Cowie, Fraserburgh, 15 fish, (bloodworm, spider), S Simpson, Turriff, 12 fish, (nymphs), B Cresswell, Macduff, 9 fish, (black buzzer), S Rankin, Peterhead, 7 fish, (Olive damsel), M Smith, Huntly, 7 fish, (bloodworm), N Thomson, Turriff, 7 fish, (pink, black buzzer), J West, Fraserburgh, 7 fish, (pink blob), J Allison, Huntly, 6 fish, (dry fly, pink lure), N Paterson, Turriff, 6 fish, (bloodworm, buzzer).
