Cracking photo of the Ardtannes and what a difference the new path has made.  Excellent work.

New path is looking great, not sure how it will stand up to flooding, but a huge improvement if it works

One from many moons ago ..... Brown's tackle shop of Aberdeen.

Lots of interesting information about the history of fishing tackle makers and retailers of Aberdeen here: http://www.feathersfliesandphantoms.co.uk/

I remember it well buying springs and Pellets for my Air Riffles when I was a young teen

What are the 3 flies in today's Forum Featured Photo please?

I assume they are a trout fly and appear to be tied on Waddington irons. I find this intriguing as the use of Waddingtons for Salmon flies seems to have substantially died out certainly where I mainly fish.

[Mike Barrio]

Yes David, Waddingtons from Magnus

Not sure how popular they are nowadays, but I'd certainly fish them for Salmon.

An old table lamp and vice, both were broken, but they make a great combination 

This simple bit of kit served me well for many years in the fishery hut and produced a lot of flies.
