Another week with variable weather. Heavy showers, wind, variable temperature but yet some excellent fishing. The heavy rain led to slightly coloured water but did not deter the fish from taking.
Some nice bigger fish were landed including;
P Gray Turriff 12.5lb
D Crawford Fraserburgh 12.5lb
N Thomson Turriff 12lb
N Wood Macduff 12lb
Lures (Nomad, Cat's Whisker, Bunny Leech and Cormorant) were responsible for the most fish but the dry fly (mainly Daddies and CDC) with suspended Buzzers gave excellent fun during the evening sessions. Some creditable numbers were recorded including;
R Donald Macduff 17 fish
P Gray Turriff 16 fish
A Gibson Gardenstown 9 fish
M Pirie Cairnbulg 8 fish
The blue Trout have really enjoyed the dry fly presentation and have taken well and, of course, fought courageously.
Most anglers have managed one or two brownies in the half pound range all of whom have been returned safely.
Delgatie Castle Trout Fishery is now a Troutmaster water and all anglers are welcome, including beginners.
Boats, rods and tackle available for hire and the fishery offers "fish tickets" or "catch and release". Gift vouchers available.
