Nothing above, under or just below bridge, but connected with this very nice wee fish for the size of burn in the run-in to the Swirly Pool. Just a wee bit soft under its belly, you can see the effect a bit in the photo. Had a bite here before, but this is the first I've landed on this wee water. No other bites on the stream. Notice its unusually missing a fair portion of its pectoral fin.
Had a dip in the North Esk on return.Water level still quite high having been in spate for last couple of days. Currently about 60cm (40cm above summer). Nothing under the wooden bridge, but lost a couple in the Road Pool, the first about 10 inch, the second slightly smaller. Tried the Corner Pool where the water was mostly covering the bank. No fish.
