tote 856 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Went out for an hour to drown some worms tonight Saw two Grilse jump at the top boards on the DGAA water on the Nith. I put the worms down through them numerous times but got no offers.Before I headed home I chose to spin the tail of the pool with a flying c,I got this wee fella right in the tip of the tail of the pool.2lb 11oz and minted,that's the first grilse I know of caught on our beat. As far as sea trout go they seem to be next to none stopping in the DGAA stretch,but speaking to the bailiffs today there aren't many about regardless of where you go Quote Link to post

highlander 0 Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Welldone tote. There aint many sea trout about this year hardly seeing any in the estuary or the river very poor for them. We have started to pickup small grilse now to but the start of the season had better grilse but now the smaller ones have apeared. We have had alot of fish with a worm on the out side of the gut the vets still havnt given us an answer to what it is yet that is causing it or what type of worms they are. Symptoms are crusty blood around the vent and swelling of the vent. Regards highlander. Quote Link to post
