De-Clermont Cup Results 16/6/23

Only 4 anglers were able to attend this competition. The weather was hot and sunny around 22 degrees at the start. Earlier in the week the river level was reading 0 feet and 0 inches but on the night had risen by one inch. Because of no rain in the west it has been suggested water had been released from reservoir dams upstream. As a result the river was murky with copious amounts of floating weed. River biologist Jonathon Archer from the Tweed Commission has been notified. It was a challenging evening with the majority of fish being caught towards the end of the evening. As always please submit any catch photos.
