Local River Update 21st May.

I felt the need to look at the loch on Bing satellite view. It is not hard to understand why big trout live in there, given the amount of agricultural nutrients that run into the loch.
Kind of like the S Uist "machair" lochs on steroids.

Average depth 1.5 metres. I was due on 2 days back and it was soup. Booked again Saturday coming ... may again be soup !! Stirs up badly and very heavy weed by mid summer. I was told that the recent biggie was returned. 
I have fished St John's before ... and twice missed big lumps !

Everybody seems to be complaining about the weather.  We were down in Galloway for break 17-20 May, first 3 days absolutely beautiful. Short sleeves and shorts most afternoons, people using suntan lotion!!  Woke up on the morning of the 20th could hear the wind getting stronger and stronger.  Then there was the rain you would have thought someone was blasting the caravan with a fire mans hose.  Well what do expect its Scotland at least we never got snow!!

We had a frost this morning. Ice on the cars. Global warming obviously.  Anyone got Girning Greta's phone number? :lol:

Two dribbles and a drip over here so far. Just enough to turn the lawn into a jungle. There is a chance it will turn properly wet later, but that is only a maybe.
