River Dee, River Don & River North Esk

River Dee:
River Dee har haft en god uge i sidste uge, og er startet fornuftigt i denne uge, så det ser ud til at springer-fiskeriet er godt med i år heldigvis.

Last week:
(Last updated: Monday 17th March)

A total of 67 salmon were reported to FishDee this week, which for the conditions was pretty good! Cold, frosty mornings gave way to glorious sunshine which led to high rises and falls in air temperatures at the start of the week. The end of the week saw storm-force winds both on Friday and Saturday afternoons and it was great to see anglers battling the winds being rewarded with a salmon for their efforts.

The catches were more spread out this week with some beats reporting their first fish of the season. Alistair Peake, ghillie at Dinnet, got in touch to say that they had had the first fish off the beat from the Logie pool. This was also a momentous fish for the angler, Pierre Woodford, as this was his first ever salmon and it was a Monkey fly that did the business.

Park and Crathie also reported their first catches of the season.

The middle river is still doing well and this week Lars Terkildsen brought an international team over to Deeside to fish the Ballogie beats. They finished the week with 18 salmon and 3 of his team managed to catch their first ever Dee springers. Lars himself, managed to get the biggest fish of the week with a 19lb sea-liced fish from Ballogie.

River Don:
River Don fisker faktisk godt i forhold til, at den ikke er regnet for en “Springer-elv”. 

Det siger sig selv at der heller ikke fiskes særligt meget på River Don, og især nu hvor Springerne er fredet indtil 1 juni, så er der mange locale der ikke “gider” Fiske. Godt for andre der gerne vil bruge en fridag ved en naæten tom elv. 

Midter/Øvre River Don omkring Kemnay og Inverurie fisker bedst, men der fiskes heller ikke ret meget nedover. Sidste lørdag så jeg ingen på ADAA,s vande, der ellers har ca. 800 medlemmer på de nedre 15 til 20 miles. Kemnay Association Water har kun ca. 2 miles fiskeri, men har taget pænt med fisk i februar og marts og ganske mange med friske havlus. 

River North Esk: 
Ja her fisker jeg jo fredag og lørdag denne weekend, så det er naturligvis spændende hvordan det går. Talte med vores Ghillie i går og han nævnte, at the Gallery havde fået 5 springere mandag og tirsdag, alle med havlus, så det er jo lovende. 

Desværre er der et rigtigt træls vejr på vej i morgen eller måske allerede i aften med masser af vand i. Håber det værste når at løbe af inden fredag, men måske kan det også lokke nye friske springere ind. 

River South Esk har fisket forbavsende godt på alle Kinnard beats, så alt i alt et nogenlunde forårsfiskeri her i nabolaget. 

Hi Michael
Thanks for the offer of the day's fishing but unfortunately i have got to work this weekend.

I landed my first of the season at Kemnay last week a fish around 6lbs on a 2inch Green & Yellow tube fly. 

A few more on the go last week again around Kintore and Inverurie the best at 20lbs sea liced. The water is at a lovely height although is becoming very clear. 

All the best on the River North Esk and hopefully catch up soon.

Regards
Martin
