Congratulations to Mark Watson (Scotsman) for landing (and returning) his first ever fish today, a 4lb grilse from the Don.
Rule 1: persevere.
Rule 2: persevere some more.

Hi folks
Caught in Bridge Stream which is just above the bridge in Inverurie. It took a red and orange thing with a bit of sparkle tied by me. Gave a bit of a fight took about fifteen mins to land and was returned safely. I was on cloud nine for about three hours afterwards after a year of fishing two to three times aweek i didn't think iwould ever catch anything..
