Two Grilse From The River Don

The grilse keep on coming on the River Don and I was fortunate enough to land two last week in howling gale conditions. I hooked four salmon in the space of one crazy hour but unfortunately two of them came off. I was more than happy to land two of them though. Hopefully the fish keep on coming and we see a good back end run to bolster what has been a big improvement on the River Don this year.
A well conditioned grilse around the 5lb mark from the River Don last week.

Another fresh grilse comes to hand on the River Don. I hooked 4 in the space of an hour but only landed 2 of them.

18lber From Tilbouries

My uncle Stuart Fleming had a day on the Tilbouries beat of the River Dee yesterday and landed this sea liced beauty! The fish took a 1" copper Ally Shrimp tube from the Alfred's Pot. It's his second 18lb salmon from the beat this year.

Cracking fish!
