It&#8217;s real. I caught my first salmon ever when up North West last week. A five pound beauty. Bob Kindness is the guy who is looking after the fish conservation up there and the results speak for themselves. The man is a genius. The fish are plentiful and if caught get put in a keep net until they are tagged then they are let loose to swim again. Wonderful place. Beautiful weather and fun was had by all.\u00a0 Especially me winding the guys up who hadn&#8217;t been so lucky. Sorry I mean talented. No I do mean lucky.\u00a0 So yet again the staycation has it&#8217;s joys. Next to gigantor &#8211; my fish &#8211; you see David&#8217;s tiddler which was caught on the loch and rapidly put back &#8211; it&#8217;s titchy!\u00a0 Not that I went on about that for any more than 5 or 6 hours. A day. Since.<\/p>\n<p>Ho hum.<\/p>\n<p>The view from the boat over to Skye from the Loch was outstandingly gorgeous as you can see here as I try my hand at Ansell Adams style photography.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1390\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1390\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040895.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1390\" title=\"P1040895\" src=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040895-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040895-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040895-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040895.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1390\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing over the sea to Skye......<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040894.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1389\" title=\"P1040894\" src=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040894-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1388\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1388\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040922.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1388\" title=\"P1040922\" src=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040922-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040922-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040922-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/alisonsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/P1040922.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A close up of the lucky fish - well unlucky fish I suppose<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yup !
