Default seaton sluice (seaton burn)

anyone seen this little burn that runs underneath the road past the chippy, i remember having a walk up there last year in the summer presuming it would just have a few minnows or sticklebacks and couldn't believe the amount of trout (and sea trout i presume!) i seen countless amount of browns along the path (the access point from the beehive road) darting up and down and seen some fish up to 2-3 pound cruising the deeper parts(couldn't believe my eyes!) the river still being only about 5ft wide! i'm presuming its closed to fishing but anyone got any info on its history or if it does have any fishing? nice to see such a small burn looking so healthy, thinking of going for a walk down there soon see how its doing.

Good to see a report of healthy waters in the homelands......
