Ferry Cottage Lower Kinnaird Beat River Tay

As of today this beautiful former ghillie's cottage on one of the most productive pools on the River Tay is my new home. My strong and developing business relationship with the Kinnaird Estate has been recognized by their management and they have very kindly made available this great base for me to operate from. Needless to say there will always be a welcoming dram for any visitors on the basis that you give me at least 1 minute's notice !!!!!

River Tummel Fish Pass Pitlochry Dam

Here's a couple of salmon resting up in one of the many concrete pools of the Pitlochry dam fish pass. While it's nice too see salmon holding in a pool like this it has always saddened me to see the absolute destruction to the river environment that hydro electric power generation has caused especially on the River Tummel system.
