Salmon beat auction
The Atlantic Salmon Trust's annual auction of fishing beats and other stuff is upon us again.
Some £80,000 worth of fishing beats in 289 lots go under the hammer this year in aid of salmon research.
There are beats as usual on UK rivers such as Tweed, Tay, Dee, Spey, Tyne and Wye but this year for the first time there some Icelandic and Norwegian rivers in the pot, including the West Ranga and the Namsen.
I notice that some Scottish haaf netting is also included in the list of lots. That's one to test your prejudices.
Copies of the catalogue, which includes an increased selection of online-only lots, are available from the AST on 01738 472032. Email: jenny@atlanticsalmontrust.org. The catalogue can also be viewed here in a day or two.
The deadlines for bids are February 2nd and 3rd for the conventional and on-line auctions respectively.
