Goldenloch
So the snow and cold are back, but its different this time as today the sun is out and there is no wind in fact it’s a perfect day for going fishing, Harold Gavin has arrived and although the wind is out the east there are fish showing which is surprising, I would say that the only downside or upside would be that it will be a lot better in the afternoon, as currently the outside air temperature is 0 yep it is zero degrees and that’s in the sun, however it says that the humidity is 90%, which I would question, how has it been fishing, well the last couple of days have been very windy, wet and just not pleasant, but before that things were building up just nicely, I believe yet to be verified that Eddie Henderson, Perth caught 11, now this is really good if true as he deserves a good day for all the help he gives me, some others however had had poor days, Sandy Drummond, Kingskettle had two such days due mostly in part to the really cold conditions and others noted that the fish that were getting caught were of the bank and jetties and not from the boats, which more or less is confirmed by Leslie Mitchell and Jim Pollock’s outing where Jim caught two, Leslie well he just had a very pleasant day with a few offers, A near neighbouring loch has a huge serious algae problem just now, this is very unusual at this time of year, but it can only but demonstrate the problems facing fisheries in this day and age, we are working tirelessly on preventative natural methods so as anglers can enjoy good clean fishing but also we would ask that anglers help stop the spread of disease and parasites by dipping their nets and motors or use ours which are their for the use off, this last week it was really nice to see some old friends return Huff and Puff survived the winter (so far) Mr Johnston who I missed seeing however its still cold really cold just stay inside for a wee while yet.
