Carron Valley Report Aug 09
Despite the torrential rain we've seen throughout August the fishing has continued to be excellent and until the last few days the vast majority of large bags have been taken on drys. Over the last few days as the temprature has dropped the fish have went down 6-12" or so and mostly taking shimmys, blobs, bibios, black pennels and carron rabbits.
