The weather has at last relented and spring salmon have started to run the Tay in Perthshire, Scotland with more settled conditions. The Stanley beats have been renown for good spring fishing in the past and it is proving the case currently with good catches over the last few days as the Tay spring season really kicks off. To qualify the Stanley beats you would include Taymount, Stobhall, Burnmouth, Catholes, Pitlochrie and Benchil. All these beats have caught over the last few days as the salmon run up the river and take a breather at Stanley. The water temperature has a large baring as well and currently sits at 39F/4C slowing the fish down on their journey to the headwaters.
The Pitlochrie beat landed another 6 spring salmon today on the Upper Scone rotation. This was Brian Corn releasing a 16 pounds springer from the Wash House.
