31 December, 2011 by Alistair

Right, I should actually point I have got my numbering wrong – the post a few days ago included three water photos that I did not label. Here is the last of the year.. Not a recent photo however a picture of what I am looking forward to in the spring – rising trout in…

Weekly Water Photo – 48 of 52

29 November, 2011 by Alistair

With all the rain we have had you can do a spot of white water rafting if you are so inclined – these pictures were taken before the water was really turned on… I had to telephone the council last week as there was a log blocking the fish pass – it has obviously now been cleared….

Sneaky Bastard!

22 November, 201122 November, 2011 by Alistair

To be fair the beast was only doing what the beasts do – looking at lunch! I walked along the Forth n’ Clyde Canal today – my plan was to take some photos of the works that have been carried out on the banks of the Kelvin however I befriended a pensioner who had walked…

So the future – what does it hold?

17 November, 2011 by Alistair

Tying, lots and lots of fly tying! Between now and December I need to churn out a couple of dozen flies for a fly swap I foolishly committed myself to on the spur of the moment. It seemed like a good idea at the time however now that I have got to stay up past…

It is about 123 days until the trout season opens again – that is potentially 123 days of freezing coldness that will eat at your soul. I have joined a fly swap in the meantime! This weeks water photo is a lovely pool on the Kelvin – I have had nice trout out of it…

Like a walk in two parks..

6 November, 2011 by Alistair

Well, not really like a walk in the park – more actually like a totally real walk in the parks. And by parks I mean Kelvingrove Park and Glasgow Green. The Summer has no well and truly left us and Autumn is spiraling out of control heading towards true winter – we are now on the long haul to…

A day out with the wife and kids on this fine Autumn day. The kids do not understand the concept of “getting an extra hour in bed”   You gain some cred if you can tell me what river this is!

Vice Chairman Perks!

26 October, 2011 by Alistair

I was thinking the other day about all the perks of being the Vice Chair of the River Kelvin Angling Association – I mean it is a big club with nearly 1000 members, we have a healthy bank balance, we have good trout fishing and great runs of Salmon. You would think there would be…

23 October, 2011 by Alistair

Is it 42?  I have no idea! Anyway, I was down at Kelvingrove park and was struck by a couple of things one of which was my boys foot in my face and the other was how Autumn everything was looking including the river – it was big by the way! It has that weird…

Weekly Water Photo has totally went fubar!

15 October, 2011 by Alistair

I owe you like 6 pictures – next year I am going to do a weekly wanker photo as I seem to run in to them more than I do water. I am going to totally cheat and use pics from over the years I have taken and then not attached to any posts..  …
