River Garry Salmon Fishing

We had a hostel full of exceptionally skilled fishermen at the weekend - all vying for the glory of the first spring salmon of the year on the Garry....unfortunately not much was biting!

Young Phil and his glamorous assistant can be seen here winning the "can you cast to the other bank and get it stuck in the rocks and lose your lure" competition.

Still, they all had good fun despite the lack of salmon. There were a number of excuses knocking about - mainly the exceptionally cold weather we've had this year and the slow currents/lack of water coming down from the frozen hills. Better luck next time chaps!

You get to a certain age though and the excitement just proves too much...
