Water Height: As of Friday 13th water at 1 foot 6 inches on the gauge at Johnston’s. This is a nice rise and has increased the fishing effort considerably. There is no news of a salmon just yet but most anglers are meeting sea trout and seeing them showing as you would expect. A visiting angler played a 2.5 lb sea trout to the net. More rain forecast, we will soon be looking for a bit of settled weather.
Beat 3: No word of any fishing activity or news of fish from the Beat just yet.
Spent Fish: Still some spent fish being caught so care is needed to return them properly.
