well spotted.....
Matt,
There are some beats that open from the 15th March, this is the legal opening date and it is up to the proprietor whether or not they open on the 15th or the 1st April.
Was out casting Sunday & Monday, there were a few stoneflies about and there was a few trout moving to them. It was warm for a few hours both days in the sun but after the winter we have had I did not expect to see anything happening so soon. Fished for salmon with Hamish last year about the same time at Inverurie and experienced the same, some big fish moving too.
Cheers
Ben
