MORE CONGRATULATIONS

More congratulations go to new river angler and permit holder Thomas Phillips who followed up with his second salmon yesterday evening, estimated at 13 lbs 8 oz, on only his third outing on the Coquet.

To add to that, his good friend Josh Angus, also brand new to river and salmon fishing, acquired his permit yesterday evening and within an hour had remarkably landed his first salmon estimated at 14 lbs 8 oz. Both fish went back strongly.

Both lads are obviously delighted and well and truly hooked. Very well done to both Thomas and Josh. You're making it look easy.

If you have not yet purchased your permit, you can still do so online and enjoy the rest of the season hoping to match (or even better) the achievement of Thomas and Josh.
