The first of the many. Cooking chanterelles today for Lee and David from San Francisco. The first ones of the season. Cheers for posting about your find yesterday. Otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered looking. They are putting in an appearance 2 weeks earlier than last year…And very tasty they were too..

For the last 4 weeks we’ve been fishing in temps not lower than 15C and up to 24C with little or no wind. Yesterday with Don and Reid it all changed. Temp of 8-10C but with the wind and rain in was bitter. Especially for Don coming from Tennessee. Still had a nice wild brown in the net and a couple of missed chances. Nothing worked but the Clan Chief and Bibio fished just below the top.

Fishing with a lovely couple from Rhode Island today. When quite randomly a woman appeared and just popped in the Loch to wash her hair. In my 25 years of guiding on Skye I thought I’d seen most things..but a first time for everything. 😂

Unfortunately due to an injury I was unable to get to my work today. So I thought I’d have a a walk around our garden to see what’s on offer. We are lucky at home, we have lawns, hedges, trees and a burn ( stream ) such a diverse area with shade, full sun and damp areas and lots of wild food. Some have passed, some are for now and some have yet to come in to season. There are also some lethal plants amongst them which I think will be worthy of a separate post another time.

Out with Bruce and Ryan this week. Father and son team from Pennsylvania. The weather was a hell of a mix with the breeze coming from all points of the compass, warm then hot then chill all in a few mins. We fished high, low and very low. Floating, sink tips drys and nymphs were employed and it was hard going in the sun and fishing on glass. Both the lads lost fish in the morning with Bruce having a good take. Come 1500hrs it was time to retire to the for a couple of pints. A great day out.

Out with Joe, Bruce, Jim and Scott today. Pals from New York State and Carolina. Conditions have changed a wee but with a SW to W breeze and a good hatch. They had their chances with 3 fish lost and another 5 missed for the morning. At last with the weather warming up it was good to fish off the top.

A morning on the loch yesterday with these lads from the Netherlands. A chill northerly wind kept the fish down but it was good craic. We had the joker, the serious one, the frustrated one, the I don’t like fishing one and the most improved one.

I hear there are record temps in some parts of the UK today. You can keep it..I’d rather be fishing in 10C (7/8 with wind chill) and sporadic showers that freeze your hands. Not sure that Dave from Northamptonshire would agree with me though. 😀

A success on otter watch yesterday with Jonathan and Debbie from Derbyshire. We watched a male and a female for the best part of 2 hours.
