Just checked on the map where you were fishing. Ive fished that bit a few times after work ( i usually park in at the business park on the outskirts of Peebles). You definitely picked the right bit. The fishing elsewhere was tricky on Saturday . My dad got three, and my brother got two. I hooked and lost two very big brownies. Frustrating, but that's fishing for you. If it was easy, it would be boring!

There was a shoal of small finnock (young sea trout) a few miles upstream of Peebles. Very surprising for this time of year, but great sport.

What did you get the Grayling on, Nymphs?

If you ever fancy going night fishing for sea trout, give me a shout and we can go the Earn.

yeah gold head hares lug! a shop bought one too i was buying a new car on friday nite never got home till 11 30 and i was workin next morning at 8 so never had a chance to tie some up it worked though

i was at the rugby pitches area as well for the first hour and a half had two and dropped about twenty lol on a wee pheasant tail and elk hair caddis!

i thought it was good i had plenty of takes but from about 8 it was solid there where olives hatching everywhere but they were hardly rising and there was a lot of caenis too!

where were you fishing about on the outskirts ? where were the sea trout about ?
