Jul 2nd The River Doon is no good today

Our monthly fishing trip has been badly affected by the weather this year and today was no exception. The rain had poured all night and indeed all this morning thus the River Doon at Smithston was high and very dirty brown. The river needed the rain to get salmon moving from the estuaries upriver but not today. A fuller report will be posted on my Desmondo's Anglings blog. The river level marker post in the picture showed a water rise of 6 inches from our arrival to departure.
