Comments: A much better day today, river dropping and clearing and light wind making fishing conditions really very pleasant. Andrew landed a great fish of 27lbs in Lyliok before adding another couple of lovely fresh fish in the high teens in Crows Nest. Dean fished the Poacher's draw carefully and banked an immaculate cock fish of 28lbs after switching to a heavier tip and putting on a huge collie'. Igor and Stanislav both had very nice fresh fish in the teens on 7 Islands, but Poachers beat ended the day on top yielding 5 fish, four of which were fresh and one over wintered. The most encouraging part of the day was seeing a decent run of fish come through Crows Nest, Lyliok and Poachers - let's hope this now builds daily and our fishers catch up with plenty of them over the next days.
