The Tail Of "The Trap" Newtyle The River Tay

Water Gauge At 0''


The water gauge is now at 0". This is a pic of the trap. The tail end of the trap is transformed by the low water into two streams running each side of "the spit". The trap is an excellent summer salmon holding pool and a lovely cast with the fly.

Anne Woodcock aka M/s Simms Posing In The Ferry Pool 19/6/09

Here's Ms Ann Woodcock enjoying a relaxing moment after the poor ghillie had to row the boat in a downstream gale(arms like popeye now!!) Ann is a very dedicated salmon angler and the most enjoyable fun person to have on the beat. Todays highlight was the "Im just getting my tips out for you" You can only imagine what the ghillie thought had been said;-) Ann is currently at Newtyle with the Hardy Greys Academy and is cooking the lunch and tea for the anglers, I can vouch for her cake making skills. Keep up the excellent work Ann and i look forward to welcoming your ladies days to Newtyle in the very near future
