Hi guys  :z16

Just been informed of a family trip down to Perth for a few days at the start of April. Its means missing some early season sport on the Don  :roll but i hope to make up for it down there. Basically I will be in the Perthsire area  for a few days so I think two days fishing is fair  :z4 :z4

I'd like to experience different water on both days e.g river and wild loch. I have limited tackle, so it will probs be fishing from the bank or shallow wading. Any of you guys able to pass on some info regarding waters, websites, flies/tackle... and so on??

Thanks
Liam

For a truely wild experience my I suggest Loch Turret. Besides feeding my favourite whiskey, it has some lovely Brown trout in it. Its a damed loch, so man made, but it is truely beautiful up there.

I'm going to be staying at Duchally Country Estate, im still looking into possibilities nearby. Ben says I should fish the Tay. It does sound brilliant. Hopefully a river one day and a loch the next  :z8

I'm up on the 4th April to the 7th. Your offer sounds ace!! Just have to see what happens.  :z16
