Great offer for Drumlanrig Castle  beat
week - 4th to 9th October . . .

We were contacted by an NFIA member who had 4 timeshare rods on the Drumlanrig Castle Beat for the week 9th to 14th October. He is unable to use them and is willing to let them out at a bargain price. We understand he has let out three of the rods - so there is one to spare.

We think it's a bargain at the cost given below - so if you are looking for a rod in what must be one of the best beats on the Nith - and during one of the best weeks - then phone the contact NOW!

The fishing is on the Castle's Middle and Lower beats which is mainly very good fly, but spinning is allowed at the ghillie's discretion if the water is high.

Normally each rod would cost £485 + VAT for the week.  Simon is willing to let them go for £400 each (no VAT).

For further details contact Simon Clowes, Hill Cottage, Shirley Ashbourne, Derbyshire DE6 3AS (Tel. 01335 361 056) or e-mail het.clowes@virgin.net
