Noticed that yesterday unfortunately at work. Must have been localised thunder clouts as its been scorching in East Neuk. Surely bring sea trout up to kirrie now 🤞

Similar story last week. I heard stories about plenty fish further down river, and with 3 lifts of water last week my mate went up Kirrie on Saturday and never saw a thing.
He has fished the beat for nearly 40 years so knows the water and was disappointed with the outcome. The only other angler there that day, which tell its own story, caught a sea trout which was coloured.
Another worrying season

I think there has only been one fish landed in April on our Kirrie beat this season. That's it.
Worst season ever

I think you are right. I know not all fish are reported but still been poor. I've never wet a line yet up there.
No doubt some fish have made it up and lying in some of these deep corners above Gella. 🤞

Anyone fish the wee rise?

Mate went yesterday morning , not heard from him which maybe tells the story. I will see him at work today and report

One small coloured fish caught thats all I've heard today.

Very localised. Some places flooded and 10 miles away never had a drop.

Westie didn't budge but the Southie is it 1' 11". It'll be away to nothing by tomorrow no doubt - had the same plan as you Gordon.

Think it will be away by tonight. Seems to go down helluva quick now

I finished early today so went up glen clova for a couple hours to see if there was anything came in on that wee lift.
There wasn't. 🤣
Fished through the pools with a conehead then stripped a sunray.
Never touched or seen a thing.

Thats disappointing and worrying.
My mate has been up the last 2 wee lifts and not seen anything either. He has fished the water for 40 + years and never seen it so poor. I've never wet a line up there this year and we are near September. !
