Jo's First Tamar Salmon!

It's been a great week for Arundell Arms salmon anglers, with nine fish recorded (8 released); not bad for August!
Among the successful guests was Jo Hudgell... this is a note from partner Joe Sinclair:

"Many thanks for another great visit. Since you now have an updated page on the website I thought I'd send these over. The fish in the picture took a gold Mepps cast upstream into the Tamar water at Lydfoot (24th August). 9lb and safely released. Jo Hudgell's first Tamar salmon!

Once again many thanks and tight lines for the remainder of the season."

WELL DONE JO!!!

Salmon Bonanza

Although the river looked unfishable, clearing waters just tempted us to cast a fly on the Tamar today... The result? Three fly-caught salmon for under an hour's combined fishing effort, in one pool.


James Palmer hooks a lively fish that initially tries to run to Plymouth!




After a 10-minute, surging battle, David slips the net...



How about that for a 10lb+ beauty, just before release.



Tim managed to get in on the act too with this shining little grilse - proper job!



Who'd have thought we'd be fishing brass tube flies on sinking lines in mid-August?!



Another 10-pounder, this time for Mr Pilkington...




This could be a great back-end season! Why not take advantage of our Last-Minute Salmon Breaks?

Last Minute Salmon Fishing

We still have some availability for those wishing to take advantage of late-season fishing.
September and early October is the prime time to fish for salmon on the Tamar and Lyd, with the brown trout fishing usually being excellent. With what is looking like a late run of fish this year, the sea trout fishing in early September could well be worth making a date for.

As a special offer, we are doing all-in packages for late-season anglers.

Dinner, bed and breakfast in the hotel (with fishing included) will cost just £120 per person, per night! Please contact the hotel for more details and quote 'WEB OFFER' when enquiring.
