8/7/2025

 June 8, 2025: No C&R Salmon or Seatrout were reported, likely due to clear skies and intense sun. Winds were gentle, shifting from WNW to NW and NNW. Rainfall was minimal at 0.4mm, the high temperature reached 17°C, and there were 5 hours and 7 minutes of sunshine. Now, let's turn to the Mad Fisherman's stories.

I remember in the salmon club up the weir stream one spring there was a snag. Everyone got stuck in it and lost their hooks. I eventually got stuck in it. It was a Sunday morning, and nobody was around only one other angler he was a Sargent in the guards. I pulled with all my might. I felt it move. I pulled out the nicest Christmas tree I've ever seen. It was covered in every kind of spinner you could think of Devons Toby’s, you name it. The Sargent asked me could he take one or two of the Toby’s they were his favourite bait. I told him take them all and I'll take everything else. I didn't like the Toby’s. None of the hooks were long enough in the water to go rusty. All baits were in mint condition. I'll never forget that day. We were to young children on Christmas morning
