A little bit of fog over the river this morning but it is burning off rapidly as the sun gets higher in the clear sky. It has all the makings of  a hot day. Salmon fishing will be tough in this weather. The water has warmed up again and this will create its own difficulties. For anyone on holidays or that just wants to try anyway then the late evening will be the best chance for success. There’s plenty of fish throughout the system and at some point they will switch on. The shop is closing today at 10am and will re open at 8am on Tuesday morning.
