Winter 2008/09 at Muckrach Falls on the River Dulnain where there was so much ice, it was a wonder that the river was running at all!
The next photograph is of a male kelt weighing about 15 lbs. You will see how it has been locked in the ice and it's now making a meal for the birds.
The next ten photographs, below, will give you some idea of the some of the work that the Spey Fishery Board does in its efforts to increase salmon stocks in our waters. They display everything from the netting stage, to the adult salmon being stripped, examined and tagged at the hatchery, the irrigated tanks where the eggs are kept, the release of a stripped and tagged fish and the hatchery itself.

In June 2008, Mr Trachsel from Switzerland paid his first visit to our waters; he had a great time and caught lots of fish during his week in Grantown. He was kind enough to send us some of his photographs, two of which are displayed below. Mr Trachsel enjoyed himself so much that he has promised to return this year - with lots of his friends! Thank you Mr Trachsel.
Above is a beautifully marked fish caught by Mr Trachsel, in June 2008.
