After a lot of blood, sweat and tears we are just about ready for our opening day on sat 29th may. The lodge is near complete, 10 of the new boats have arrived, and weve started to stock up with fish from 1lbs 8oz upwards. We are still waiting for our life jackets to arrive but anglers who have the own, will be allowed to book one of our new hebridees 44o 4.4mtr long boats. Anglers who have there own electric outboards are permitted to use them. one "IMPORTANT NOTICE" all anglers MUST READ AND ABIDE by the new fishery rules which can be found at the fishery or on our web site The "NEW" Watch Fishery Thanks Bill Taylor

Can't wait to start fishing the watch again now it being run properly! Will the jim Clark rally not interfear with the opening?

Good luck Bill - hope the opening goes well. Unfortunately I can't make this weekend but will be up for an evening soon.

Was wondering how the opening of the watch went?

Yes it went fine, the weather was not bad and fish were getting caught, couple of things need attention, the boats will need a bit of weight as already discussed with the boat builder, and possibly have to increase the size of the car park. The "NEW" Watch Fishery
