It was interesting and pleasing to see that the much discussed dam repairs had been successful and repairs made to the footbridge below too to assist with the flow of water. I now hope that Scottish Canals dont not let the dam fall into such a state of neglect ever again.
I'm actually very surprised that the Loch has returned to normal levels again so soon. The Loch was almost dry in the summer and in a real sorry state.
Time will tell how much the fly life and fish habitat has been effected by the low levels.
After yesterdays walk I'm encouraged and look forward to the 2023 Hillend trout fishing season which is only 71 days away.

ReplyDeleteYour water will recover in about 2 seasons and potentially fly life could be better than you remember! By the way what an excellent Blog love your content and you tie really neat and tidy flies that all look they will catch fish, but what old pattern doesn't look fishy! Hope you have a great season.
