We have just been told by a very good source that today (08/02/08) a monster salmon was taken on the Dee.
We know that rumours turn into 'Chinese Whispers' but we bring you this info anyway, lets hope its genuine because it will be a real 'shot in the arm' for the Dee and for Scottish fishing in general, particularly when you add it to the giant Ness fish at the end of last season.
Lets cut to the chase: A 51" fish is reported today from David Payne's Lower Blackhall Beat, Colin Simpson was present as Ghillie and is reported to estimate the fish at 45 - 50 lbs!!
We will keep 'digging' and hopefully get some photos soon.
