River Don 18/10/11

My Dad was out fishing the Lower Don for a couple of hours this afternnon and landed a nice hen salmon around the 7lb mark. It was a wet and windy afternoon so hopefully the rain on the high ground will be enough to lift the river level a wee bit, just to freshen things up before the season ends. Apart from the odd spate, the Don has been hovering around the 7" for most of the year. Here is a picture of his fish just before being returned.

A fine reward for braving the wind and rain this afternoon.
