The scorching summer weather continues on the Tay, Perthshire, Scotland and salmon fishing has become a lot more difficult in bright conditions and soaring temperatures. Yesterday the air temperature was up to 29C/84F and the river temperature was up to 21C/70F.

The lower Tay Benchil beat just below Stanley on a cracking summer day.


John Bennett hooks a good salmon on the fly in the Long Shot pool of the Benchil beat.


The salmon fought hard in the low water.

Peter Backhouse caught this 4 pounds grilse also on the Benchil beat in the Long Shot yesterday fishing on Upper Scone with the Perth and District Angling Club. Fiona and Peter Backhouse run the No. 9 Guest House in Perth and welcome visiting fishers to the area.
