i tried to put a reply to some questions about the 33 caught on park on the salmon fishing forum but for some reason i could not post anything.anyway i,m sure someone will let me know why this is.anyway i had 11 fish and only 2 grilse among them biggest salmon around 20lb.salmonstalker and myself arrived at park at 8.30 had a crack with keith(ghillie) had a couple o drams and i was sent up to beat 1 park inn,i new were i was going as i,ve fished quite a few times from the opposite bank but only in the spring.keith told me to go up above park inn to fish a small run there 2 casts later i was in only for about 10 seconds, after a few swear words i fished the pool through,then dropped down to park inn.i was,nt happy with my flea so put on one i stole from big bros the night before.yum yum i thought i would eat that myself.3cast later it was on tearing down thru the pool at an awfy speed i was thinkin big fish but one big run and it was fucked a fish about 9lb,i quickly ran back up the pool 15mins later i was in again a fish of around 10lb the next cast after that i was in again a fish about 8lb all silver fish,then i seen a fish splashing down below me must have been over 30lb .so i started moving down the pool rather quickly,got to were i was going to cover the fish.then did one of my spaggheti casts,its funny i always think u have to do the perfect cast all the time bollocks a couple o mends and pulls the flea line was crossing the lye i,d seen the fish in .the line stopped ,i lifted into to it and though yes its him,but it was,nt a grilse cartwheeled out of the water and he was gone,i seen the fish twice more but tried a couple o fleas over .but not a tug.i phoned s stalker and if he wanted to swap.so i went down to the kirks,changed back to the flea i had had all my fish on 4th cast later it was on, it just sat in the stream for about a minute a very heavy fish ,which came of 20seconds later .bollocks ,so i was dropping down to my favourite pool on park.remembering keith tellin me were the hot spot was,the pool was stuffed with fish 2nd cast at the big rock on the other side,he was on ,what a great scrap for about 15mins then landed him he was about 16lb bar o silver.dinner time arrived ,had a bite to eat,then off for round 2.keith told me to do green bank and top of castleton .then i could go down and do the durris stream ,nice 1 i thought.not an offer in the middle of the green bank but was lookin forward to fishin the tail it was stuffed not an offer.time for the sunray me thinks grabs my other rod about 5 cast there he was for about 20seconds and he was gone.2 casts later a good strong pull but nothing,i dropped down to the tail of castleton it was not long before i hooked a small grilse of about 5lb sealicer
. then into the durris stream which was absolutly stuffed with fish.catching a lovelly fish about 14lb second cast and not another offer all the way down ,which p me off big style,but as i was fishing down durris stream i was thinkin were have all the fish gone that had been showing.looking down stream at the jetty,s the place came alive with fish.obviously i,d been pushing them out of durris stream with my eratic casting.salmonstalker who i was with had come up to the hut as it was 5 o,clock.after a wee dram or 2 i asked keith our ghillie .if i could go down and fish the jetty,s he said if stevie and i wanted to swap for the evening it was ok with him.so of i went praying that that the fish that i spooked out of the durris were stil their.as i got out of ma motor 2 in the air at the one time.so i checked leader, fly ,pulled 4 or 5 yards of the lee wulf line out of the reel and rolled it out.then the 4 seconds later he was on an older fish around 13lb .next cast thinking to myself is your boyfriend in that lie with u,lol .sure enough he was a cock fish around 15lb .2in 2 casts not bad i thought.as i was playin the fish i phoned salmonstalker to get his arse down here as there on it.
only to be told that i,m playing a fish aswell,so after telling him he was a cooooooock.i landed the fish.i had about another 5 cast but nothing ,checked the fly 3 steps forward cast out about 35 yards the flea only hit the water and he was on screamin off down the pool at 1000mph cartwheeling as he went.thinkin to myself now your fuckin talkin,20 mins later a cracking fish of about 20lb.i fished down about another 60yds nothin.so back up to were i started 2 casts later i was in again a fish of about 11lb they were all older fish in the jetty,s.that was 10.s /stalker phoned to say he was away to hotel .so i thought braw last 20mins in the cellar.it only took 3 casts and he was on not a great scrap but a lovely 9lb sea licer to finish the day.i.d decided to phone my big brother and invite him up to fish my rod the next day.i think it was only right to do that if it was,nt for his killer fleas i would,nt catch half the fish i catch.so i ghillied for him.all i can say is your some fisher bro.the coooooooooooock got 13 and lost about 7.but the great thing about ghillieing for him all day is i,ve seen a few more of his tricks.so when salmonstalker left at 5.he said i could fish his rod if it was ok with keith.so i ended up getting 1 out of the house pool and 2 out of the durris stream last fish being 19lb.i,ve had a day of 21 and 15 but these 2 days were the best days .thanks stevie, tony, billy and keith the ghillie. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
