Tebay Salmon Planting Out

Members of Keswick anglers assisted Tebay Anglers association with planting out an estimated 10,000 eggs in 25 Scotty boxes. A 4 mile walk to the spawning ground on Bowderdale beck made for a very tiring day.

Wild Brown Trout

April 3rd. Derwent at Portinscale high and slightly coloured no surface activity but a chance to a couple of tungsten beaded nymphs soon gained the interest of a fair few of these spotties, nice to see so many have weathered the storm.

Litter Pick on River Derwent

Good turnout of people approx 20. We collected 40 bags and 4 dumpy bags of rubbish from Portinscale bridge down river to clay holes. We started at 10.00 am and finished at 1.00 pm. A big thank you to Ian Creighton from W.C.R.T for organizing and arranging the clearance of the rubbish. A good day.
