Picture of Stan Turners 20lb fish from Aramstone as reported earlier in the week.




River conditions are as good as you are likely to get them this spring apart from that nagging easterly wind on more exposed beats making it feel cold.
Rewards could be worth it however and Geoff Tyler lost a really big fish yesterday fishing Loxsters Pool on Whitney Court.  Any area upstream of Ross in particular could meet a big fish. Seems to be the trend at the moment on several rivers of the odd really big fish about.

NOTE. We will not be recording salmon with no captors name given.

TODAY.
A 10lb fish from Caermawr today for owner Wayne Tyler.
 Nathan Jubbs fish was also taken from there not Caerwnon as I stated yesterday. Well they do sound similar!!!

Salmon Hatcheries Change Gene Expression
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ground-breaking research in Oregon has shown that growing salmon in hatcheries causes some genes normally "switched off" in wild fish to be "switched on" and vice versa - and the impacts last a lifetime. It highlights the need for hatcheries to provide conditions as close to wild conditions as possible.
