What a month April has been! Weather very settled and fishing steady. The bright sunshine has it's drawbacks and the fish have gone very deep except early morning and evening when sport can be enjoyed on, or near the water surface. During the day beaded lures and gold heads have been prevelant and good catches have been recorded at depth including:
P Cowie Fraserburgh 18 black buzzer
J West Fraserburgh 18 WSW/cats/fritz
I Watt Turriff 14 dry fly
S Anderson Peterhead 14 WSW
J Flynn Milltimber 13 blobs/buzzer
A Fernie Milltimber 9 blobs/buzzer
A Gibson Gardenstown 8 various lures
B Blacklaw Ellon 8 various lures
Top among the junior anglers was Francis West, Fraserburgh with 8 fish on cat's whiskers and fritz variations.
Dare we suggest that rain (at night only) would be welcome and help to freshen the fish and the water. Any rain in limited quantities only.
The fishery opening times are now 8:00am to 9:00pm and boats, rods and tackle are availalbe for hire. Booking not necessary.
