Salmon Fishing Season Opens in Scotland
Yesterday saw the start of the 2008 salmon fishing season in Scotland. With a quaich full of whisky being poured into the River Tay (Scotland's longest river) at Kenmore, the season got underway.
All the talk though seems to be about the new conservation measures that are being put in place to preserve Salmon stocks.
Scottish salmon anglers are being encouraged to return their first catch of the day to the river and only take one fish home from any subsequent catches they make. Of course many of Scotland's salmon fishermen already return all the fish they catch, but for those who don't then this may help preserve a few more fish and make for more fish in the rivers in future.
