Just started fishing on The Almond and would welcome advice on best patterns and also an indication of the most likely pools to try.

http://www.fishalmond.co.uk/what_flies.html/

this should give you some helpful info with what flies. I'm sure another member can help out with the right pools 

A member sent these to us. fantastic pictures of just some of the water we have at our doorsteps. 

The member who sent them in said there was lots of fish rising all over the stretch at the back of the airport.

please feel free to add more pictures to this thread.

We have finally managed to get our new website up and running.

But this means that Everyone must sign up again.

It will take some time to validate all users who have paid for the seasons membership (club members) But please be patient this will be all sorted in due course.

Hopefully you enjoy and like the new site as much as we do.

There is still lots of work to do on the website so please if you come across any issues report them in the forums

Thanks
