Inverpolly
Scotland September 2010.
A week flyfishing in the Scottisch Highlands on
the Inverpolly Estate. Caught one salmon in the Garvie, two salmon and a
seatrout in the Polly River and one salmon in the Osgaig. The biggest one was
caught in the Polly river and measured 11 pounds en 78 cm. Three salmon a the
seatrout were catched on a Ally's Shrimp double hook size #14 and the fourth was
caught on a black/purple copper tube fly with a treble hook. Flyfishing on
pollack in salt water from the shore in the bay resulted in two pollacks. This
is great fishing because these fish are very powerful. For the river and loch
fishing I used a 10 ft #7 Hardy Demon flyrod combined with a floating line and a
Hardy 2 meter sinktip with a 16 lb leader, wich is more than enough. For the
saltwater fishing I used a Hardy Zane 9ft #9 combined with a 450 grain sinktip
flyline and a 26 lb leader. We fished the system with 14 men and caught 19
salmon this week. The waters we fished on were the Garvie, Osgaig, Polly River
(devided in 4 parts), Loch Polly and the sea. Because of heavy rainfall the
water level was high and is was to dangerous to go up the mountains to fish for
trout in the mountain lakes. The combination of salmon fishing during the day
and good Scottisch Wiskey in the evening was very good.
