I’ve just returned from a wonderful three days Salmon fishing on the river Spey in Scotland. Not ideal fishing conditions as we had a mini heatwave of bright sunshine and boiling hot temperatures but it didn’t stop the fish running. Over the last few years I have fished for Salmon on several rivers but have always drawn a blank. They have become my nemesis in the fishing world. Luckily I managed to get one up on the Salmon this week and caught a 11lb bar of silver at the tail end of the Jamerson pool on the Rothes beat. Unfortunately I lost three other fish, one of which was a monster! I had the bugger on for over 25 minutes when it made a last dash for freedom while beaching it and the line (16lb) snapped at the fly as it shot out over the shallow water, truly gutting…
