The river Tay is on the rise again after another day of heavy rainfall. Hopefully it will start to settle as we aproach the end of the month as running salmon numbers increase.

The river is clearing after high water. With more rain forcast tonight it is likely we will see another rise in water levels tomorrow. The unsettled water conditions are making targeting spring salmon difficult. Hopefully we'll get some settled water before the end of the month.
