NORTHERN DIARY // SALMON FISHING IN SCOTLAND SEASON 2024
SPATE presents NORTHERN DIARY // SEASON 2024
Season 24 was one for the books. We spent more time fishing than filming and we make no apologies for it! However, we still managed to capture a few golden moments on film to share with you fine rabble, so please enjoy a (very) brief recount of the highlights from an incredible year on the river.
Shot and Edited by Colin Macleod featuring many friends.

    Yet another superb film showing both the highs and lows of Salmon fishing (& ST night fishing!) as well as the precious friendships and rivalry formed on the River with real friends who share passion and obsession for salmon fishing! Thank you for producing and sharing, much appreciated. Being naive I didnt realise Lana knew such words!

    Great footage, craic and lovely water at Drynachan. The beat below at Banchor, also Cawdor estate is challenging but worth a cast, switch rod is all that's required. Ness Castle and Ness side are lovely beats on the Ness but not as productive as Dochfour nowadays.

    I loved fishing as far back as I can remember,just some line a hook, worm, line held in my hand and dangle it over the bank and peer over the edge and wait! wiggle it! and bang a wee trout! As a kid that was from a burn in a town called Alyth Perthshire. I moved onto to Salmon growing up. It has been a life long passion! Watching your films has brought many memorries flooding back in a way not many films do. You have a real talent! Many many thanks. Tight lines.

  • @TroubadourK
    @TroubadourK 11 місяців тому

    A salmon is not a crocodile or croc. Its a salmon. Respect it. 'Croc' is an irritating, trendy, silly name some vapid millenials call a big cock salmon in recent years, and other millenials follow suit in fine Tik Tok fashion. Salmon don't eat people. No crocodile could swim the distances salmon do to feed out at sea, then return to the rivers to spawn.

    I'm speechless. At the end of the day, fishing is more than just about, say, fishing. It's the social element, the joy of the meal, the fireside banter, or silence. The tackle, the fish, part of it, but it's the complete experience that endures. Bravo!
