 Welcome back here to the beautiful banks of the River Teith, which you can see in the background sits directly below the famous Stirling Castle. We're delighted to announce that we will be welcoming Joe Steenson to open Stirling Castle Fisheries on Wednesday 1 February 2017. Joe symbolises a new angler into the sport. Although she has an experienced angler, she has only participated in salmon fishing for the last year. This is exactly what we're looking for coming forward into 2017. We're trying to get new anglers into the sport. Wether they're experienced anglers or they're just taking up the sport for the first time, we offer numerous permits at a reasonable cost to be able to participate in the sport. There's such a strong community that surrounds this river and it really needs to be utilised. If we don't get out there and utilise the river, it's going to go and then we won't have any fish and we won't be able to fish anymore. Fishing is so cool these days. We really need to get this big push for kids and for women to pick up a rod and just go out and have fun. That's what it's about, just having fun. I'm obsessed with it, you can tell, so I might be biased but it's a really cool pastime to have. Putting on some flashy fly, just checking out a line, standing in the river, surrounded by nature. And the chance to catch an amazing beautiful silver salmon is just, I don't know, it just sounds like a nightmare to me. 2016 was the first year we introduced the £10 permit for kids. We're excited that we did have some kids take up the sport and some new ones and some people who have fished before. Next year the council have agreed to keep the prices the same so we're excited, looking forward to the 2017 season to try and engage more anglers. Do you have any anglers in the sport? You know this river is so beautiful. We really have to encourage using it.
