It was an early booking, and Courtney was well aware that the conditions would be tough, with low water and very early for the Awe, but there was a slim chance of a springer, or even just a kelt or sea trout, so we gave it a good go!

Courtney is an accomplished single hand fly caster, and it didn't take her long to get the hang of a spey rod and was consistently firing it out across the current.

Finally a fish for Courtney!






Unfortunately it wasn't to be, so we nipped onto Loch Etive to ensure she caught a fish on her Scotland holiday! Even this wasn't easy with a bitter easterly wind, but we managed a fish in a beautiful sunset!
