One of the things that I would like to do next season is to have a go at tempting a River Deveron Brownie

The Bridge of Marnoch area certainly looks "fishy" .......... Would this be a good place to try?

Best wishes
Mike

Mike

Yes .
This area is full of troot averaging 1/2 lb , which will accept almost anything in early season and nothing else the rest of the year due to the waders.

Thanks Paul

Are trout anglers welcome on the Deveron?

No, I'm not being funny or looking to start a "tricky" thread by the way

Cheers

Indeed they are Mike 

I was supposed to be going out for a day this season past with your friend and mine Allan Liddle - folks may recall a piece done by Paul Procter which Allan was heavily involved with -  but I ran out of time and we never got it organised (mental note to self - must do better in '08).

Some folk rate the Deveron above the Don for free rising trout; I remain to be convinced but I hope to find out next season

Hi Hamish

Re: "I remain to be convinced" ......... An excuse for a grand day out, great stuff

Cheers

My thinking exactly Mr B

Trout anglers may be welcome, but they still have to pay Salmon fishing prices.

Deveron is a cracking river , 5th in the top  5 Salmon rivers of Scotland  , Largest UK fly caught Salmon (to a woman again) , arguably the largest river caught Brownie  on its tributory the Isla. Frank at Turrif tackle can usaully give you good advice.
