    Evening all, I've managed to injure my hand at work and realistically the chance of me being able to cast a fly rod by Saturday is extremely slim. My fishing partner doesn't mind missing this one out, so I'm advertising both rods for this coming Saturday. Kind Regards, Campbell

    I've cycled, walked,cycled again and walked again along the banks of the Tay at Dunkeld.....morning,noon and evening.....never seen a splash. But some nice trout rising where the gulls are feeding in the ripply water..

    After reading the thread on that monster from Finland it got me thinking. We still have fish that size in our rivers. What is the biggest Atlantic salmon that you have seen with your own eyes? Doesn’t have to caught or landed could even been netted. The biggest I’ve ever seen was last season...
  7. River Tay
    Currently a huge spat going on in the Tay Ghillies Association Facebook page just now. It seems that 2 very ill informed anglers, suggested to come from England but maybe not have been fishing today on an unnamed beat. Police Scotland have been informed and allegedly the anglers claimed to be...

    Picture taken after I dropped a few of my original yellow belly Minnows off to that well respected Tay Ghillie Colin McFadyen of Dalmarnock fishings a great beat to practice the art of the floating Devon. Thanks for the pic Colin. Tightlines from Tay Minnows. look

    I know things are still early days, and conditions not exactly been good. But the catches are way way down, and reports form mates on the river, are fish are scarce. Are we seing the result of storm Francs destruction ? Jan 1016 puts us in line for poor returns on 2sw fish. Lets hope not. At...

    Afternoon.. I'm looking to treat myself to a new spinning rod for the coming season. I've always been a Daiwa kind of guy and have used my trusty 11ft Altimor and my 10ft Vulcan for a number of years so will probably stick with Daiwa. 2 rods I'm considering, the new Whisker and the Shogun...

    The mighty Tay opens tomorrow. Doesn't seem to be much interest up to now. Perhaps we should run a sweep on how many fish will be caught on opening day. I would go for one and hope to be proved wrong.

    Hi, I am looking to purchase a 10/11 size of salmon reel for my 50th birthday and don’t mind spending up to £900 for it. It would get used on the Tay and also trips to Norway where it needs to hold a fair amount of backing. What would be the recommendations ?
  17. River Tay
    Just back from almost 2 weeks on the Tay at Perth.I've fished here for over 30 years now and had some truly great times. Sadly it pains me greatly to say the once great River Tay is now beyond being on it's knees.1st two weeks of Sept., historically prime time and the Tay looks little more than...

    Well there just has to be for me to actually catch one and lose a much bigger fish shortly thereafter. Small, but perfectly formed, this is the fish that has officially saved my bacon from a possible 1st totally blank spring in 40 years of relentless pursuit of these things of...
