Spring Fishing update- March 2024.

The End of our 2023 Guiding Season.

Our New Fishing Hut has been built ready for our 2024 Season.

Overall a superb season for us so far. Our catch total being 55 Salmon and 29 Sea Trout.

No serious rain for sometime is making Salmon & Sea trout fishing very difficult at this time. Rivers are low and water temps are increasingly high. Lets pray for rain soon for the fishes sake!!

Tim Kelly decided to book one of our Introduction courses for Fly Fishing and told us his target Species was Sea Trout. After numerous emails back and forward, Tim had booked the evening with us and I had booked the Stretch on the River Till, this time booking Upper Tindle which is part of Ford & Etal Estates.

Made up of Six Members for the first season starting next year, 2024 paying an annual subscription. They will have access to our stretch on the Whiteadder first of all, for so many days per season.

Over the last six years, May has always been a great month to target the last of the Spring Salmon. If we have a good April on the Whiteadder, and good numbers of fish are in the system and we get rain early May this can provide incredible Sport.

The pressure was off and he was smiling from ear to ear and so was I, Its always a special moment to share when someone catches there first Salmon on the fly. Massive congrats Simon!

March & April is always a very exciting time on the River Whiteadder. Especially when Big Spring Tides coincide with good water levels. It can provide incredible fishing and this is exactly what happened!

When I was given the chance to head to the west coast of America to swing for Winter Steelhead which would be fresh out of the Pacific Ocean I couldn’t turn the chance down!! I always say, that a Salmon is a fish of 10,000 casts!! A steelhead on a swung fly would probably be a bit more difficult, maybe a fish of 100,000 casts!!

Well what can I say, after big spring tides and a rise in water levels I was determined to try and catch that elusive February Spring Salmon on our stretch of the Whiteadder.

Well the 2023 Season is underway here with Chasing Fins and we are very excited for the season ahead, welcoming very well known faces back onto the river bank but also like most seasons, welcoming new faces along too.

After an Incredible first half to our Spring Season, kicking off towards the end of March with our first fresh fish, the fishing got better and better as the weeks progressed.

There is no escaping that the start of the 2021 season has been an unusual one for all of us! COVID restrictions impacted a lot of the early season fishing with movement restricted and a flat ban on travel to Scotland up until recently.

Chasing Fins are delighted to announce we have teamed up with Aardvark McLeod to offer our guests a series of exclusive guided salmon and seatrout fly fishing trips on the River Tweed and its tributaries.

Following yesterdays announcement from the North Eastern Councils and Local Authorities, we have reviewed the Chasing Fins COVID policy.

Chasing Fins are delighted to announce we are working in partnership with Alba Game Fishing. Alba provides fishing trips and “bespoke fishing and touring vacations" throughout Scotland for salmon, trout, sea trout, grayling and saltwater species.

After years of my mother pestering me for casting lessons and trying to fit it in around guiding abroad and guiding back home, this Spring has given me and my mam a great chance to spend some quality time together on the river and teach her the wonderful art of spey casting.

The sea trout has always been in my eyes one of my favourite fish to catch, I've caught fish from all around the world, be it an ocean going torpedo like a long tail tuna or a big feisty giant trevally trying to engulf your surf candy as your run out of stripping power!
