35" cock fish for John Averill from the Spring Pool Gutter on a self tied Dee Monkey variant. A really deep, muscular fish which we estimated at 18-20lb.

Lovely days fishing at Gromain, water just under a foot on gauge and gin clear. One cock Salmon, coloured, estimated at 15lbs from spring pool.

5lbs caught by Nick James from Ferry and another lost. Party of canoeists caused disruption (no fish caught later) and claimed existing agreement null and void. Spoke to them at Boughrood and found that majority of canoeists had been misled by leader into undertaking trip.

An enjoyable days fishing; sadly no salmon today (except a kamikaze trout in the Ferry Pool) although with the water at about a foot on the gauge conditions felt good. It was nice to catch up with Roger Kempshall who was also fishing Gromain as we hadn't seen him since last year.
