Cold day on Speyside

Monday 22nd February and a very cold start to the week. The grue made fishing impossible today and there doesn't appear to be any change in the forecast over the next few days.

About Me

Speyghillie: I am the Ghillie on the Kinermony beat of the River Spey situated just above the town of Aberlour, in the heart of Speyside. I have spent over 30 years on various rivers throughout the World, catching in excess of 1000 Salmon and have gained a great deal of experience in all aspects of the sport. On leaving school, and whilst waiting to join the RAF, I was very fortunate to spend a year on the Deveron's finest - Forglen beat, under the watchful eye of legendary Ghillie Jonathan Taylor. Not only did Jonathan and Jock Masson teach me a great deal about Salmon but indeed many lessons on life in general. Both were remarkable men, excellent role models and of course, in the tradition of distinguished Salmon fishers, great raconteurs.
