Anglers urged to put back salmon – Lord Kelvin senses trouble!

1 May, 2009 by Alistair

So anglers in Scotland are being urged to put back all spring salmon caught due to the runs collapsing – tragic – to be fair I think all Salmon in the Kelvin should be returned – the fact yer granny likes a bit of salmon is not good enough an excuse in my book to kill a fish that will potentially bring many more back to the river.

I wonder how the Salmon season will be this year on the Kelvin? – the runs are usually cyclical – some good and some bad – they have been good for the last couple of years – I predict either a bad year this year or a terrible one next year. 

Unfortunately this will be when the members of the Kelvin have just been asked to pay an increase in permit prices.
