17lb Tay Salmon


This fish was caught from the Steps Pool on an upstream flying C. I was fishing with Calum McRoberts today and it was nice to give him a taste of his own medicine for a change!! We had a plethora of Kelts today and there were a good few fish splashing about. The water temperature is up today and there were Trout rising steadily this afternoon indicating a good hatch. Lets hope a few of the fish in the lower river start heading this way.
