I thought the bottom beat on Forbes was the opposite bank (left) to Monymusk no.1(right) Perhaps i am mistaken :z8

Anyway here is another easy one.

One of the few places on the Don where you can see Salmon leaping
up the rapids :wink

I spent a whole afternoon watching a family of otters playing on the rock in the centre of the flow, it was a little bit
lower that day and the rock was exposed :wink

i think mums the word again :z16

Must be further up than i've been, i don't recognise it all.

I'd say Strathdon somewhere, so i'll guess at Candacraig.
I'm looking forward to finding out where it is though, could be the spot to try in the summer when i'm back :z18

Sandy,

Nope, too high up by a good few miles. A wee clue, we are looking upstream and there is a road running beside the right hand bank :wink

I thought at first it may be Monymusk, but I'm going to plump for Glenkindie - for the hell of it you understand :wink

Nope, but you're both going in the right direction. Still too high though
