Was up at Usan last week with brother Rod. Report isn't very good as the weather snookered us quite a lot.
Basically we were up there on:
Sunday 22nd - forecast was for 30 knots southerly.......forecast was right.
Monday - wind eased to 20 knots so the rain in your face all day was slightly more bearable.
Tuesday - dank, dark and miserable - 12 degrees max (wife is lying in garden with glass of wine - 30 degrees in Birmingham)
Wednesday - calm and bright - yippee
Thursday - similar with top temperature of 15 degrees
Friday - back to 25 knots south easterly (forecast was for 7 knots westerly)
Saturday.............same as Friday
As a result the fishing wasn't up to what we would have expected but we tried. There were a few fish about but we couldn't get away from codling between 1 and 2 pound. The best fish was about 5lb and we got some wrasse to 3lb. We probably averaged about 8 fish a day, between us. Here's some of the pics:

Last day they said showers. This one must have started in Dundee and ended in Aberdeen
Always good to see the dolphins
