Managers Comments: 
A slower day again today, the bright sunshine I'm sure is not helping the situation with the low warm water. Eddie & D’Arcy, the Yorkshire contingent, had a reasonably good day landing 6 fish between them. Darcy set off up the Lyliok river last night and managed to winkle out a nice fish from Snake pool.  Eddie had a couple of fish from Upper Norcamp in the morning and then fished the day with a good 13 pounder in Lyliok pool.

Congratulations to Andreas who landed his first ever atlantic salmon this morning in Lyliok, a fresh 10 pounder. A lovely  fish and I hope its the first of many to come. Euan also had a relatively good day, and a good week I might add, landing a handful every day. Today he did have a nice fresh 14.5 pounder.

Water really starting to drop away now, prehaps we will be able to channel the fish slightly more.
