A big Welcome to the 2018 Season!

Not a Grayling friendly water 
Not a great deal to report in the early part of 2018 as we have had few opportunities for Grayling fishing given the high coloured waters we've experienced of late. Here is a photo taken on one of the tributaries of the river Eden yesterday.

However, although the early Grayling fishing has been a bit of a wash out we have managed to get some tuition sessions organised on the main river, as water height isn't always a negative in these situations as there is always somewhere we can get into the water, and "believe it or not", we have had a few reasonable breaks in the weather which have presented us with the odd nice day giving us the opportunity to do this. 

Let's hope for a few more of these
On a more positive note, although still a bit early for great results, the salmon season is now open on the river Eden, and given the previous few seasons statistics, it shouldn't be too long before conditions are favourable enough for opportunities to present themselves to us once again. "Here's looking forward to that!

It is also quite surprising how quickly the trout season creeps up on us, and come March 15th, which isn't that far away, we will hopefully be enjoying some good sport there too, and once we enter April and into May we should be getting into some very nice fish.

See you all soon!
Several of you have already booked in for tuition and, or, fishing days for this year, so I am certainly looking forward to those sessions and I hope to see many more of you throughout the year as usual. Let's kick off the season with a bang. "Tight Lines to all".
