During the spring salmon fishing in Scotland probably offers the greatest opportunity for a “bend in the rod” than at any other time of the year. However, do not be misled, that bend in the rod may not always be from a shiny fresh-run salmon. Particularly in the early couple of months of the season, there are many “kelts” in the rivers. These are salmon which arrived in the rivers during the previous year, spawned and managed to survive long enough to start heading back to sea.
Scotland’s historic capital city is a magical place at Christmas. Experience the city’s festive charm with a Christmas hunting break in Edinburgh.
The seasonal spirit is celebrated with lights on George Street and in Princes Street Gardens, traditional pubs are festooned with decorations and a huge Christmas tree is erected at the top of The Mound. The Christmas Festival adds to the seasonal cheer with carousels and amusements, a Christmas tree maze, ice skating rink, street parties, Santa train, light shows, Santa Fun Run and the hugely popular Scottish and European Christmas Markets. The Christmas and New Year period really is a wonderful time to experience this most beautiful of cities

Here’s a lovely snap from our clients morning roe buck stalking in the Scottish Borders, a beautiful animal! Roe buck stalking in the borders was only the first part of a packed itinerary.
The clients shot grouse on the 12th and hunted with hawks in Perthshire. Next stop is the isle of Skye where they will be taking a private charter for an afternoon’s sea fishing and then stalking red deer on Eilean Iarmain estate (Isle of Skye).
After Skye the pace slows down a bit (relatively) with some tourism around the Nevis range, then on to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, a trip to Glen Coe and Glen Orchy
More photos to come…….
