Lindores Loch, Evening Session

Cap'n F away fishing the Tay all weekend.  Tommy Steven reports...

Very poor conditions for our first evening outing of the season -- a cold, strong SE wind, overcast and misty, with heavy rain for the last hour and a half!  (Glad I was up the Tay, it was lovely up there -- Ed.)

Only an occasional fish was seen to rise later in the evening.  Tommy had nothing until 8.30, then by a pure fluke (Tommy's words) hooked 3 at once, landing 2.  Guest John Levy had 2, one after the other, at the start of the session, then had not another touch all evening.  Tommy and John both took their fish on the far side from the harbour, on floating line and very slow-fished buzzer pupae.

The only other fish caught were one each by Dougie Skedd (on a booby) and Alan Holbrook (on a buzzer pupe).

That was it: 9 rods, 6 fish.
