Trout & Salmon  |  Oct-25
In the October issue of Trout & Salmon magazine Rob Hardy heads to the Scottish Borders to explore a diverse fishery renowned for its variety and size of fish, while Don Stazicker highlights the rewards of careful observation on River Tees club water. Adrian Little recalls formative fishing memories and Michael Evans uncovers crafty techniques for waking up reluctant salmon. Meanwhile, Matt Harris explains how competition-honed river methods can be deadly for sea-trout.
Elsewhere, Gary Houston of the Ulster Angling Federation takes to the Soapbox, Dani Morey asks what it takes to pursue the mighty huchen, and Giles Catchpole muses on the conversations that bind anglers together.
