Gordon braves the elements . . .

Nith Fishings Improvements Association President, Gordon McGregor had reason to be pleased with himself on Friday 12th November.

Invited for a day's fishing on the DGAA Carnsalloch beat Gordon opted to fly fish in very difficult gale force winds. Others were spinning or worming.

Fifteen minutes into his day he landed this small (6lb) salmon. In the end, however, the dreadful conditions were too much and Gordon opted for the shelter of the fishing hut.
