Salmon Fly Fishing | Balnowlart | River Stinchar | October 2023

Massive thanks to my very good friend and fellow youtuber ‪@CF_Fishing‬ for inviting me as a guest to this amazing spate river near Ballantrae, South Ayeshire, Scotland.

The River Stinchar is a river in South Ayrshire, Scotland. It flows south west from the Galloway Forest Park to enter the Firth of Clyde at Ballantrae, about 20 kilometres south-southeast of Ailsa Craig.

It was a VERY WET day with a rising river and terrible conditions, but we both managed to catch - and Theo had a good day out too!

Hi my name is Chris and my channel is called Cornish Chris the Fish. I am a Cornishman venturing out beyond the Duchy (of Cornwall) to experience life on the road full time touring in my Caravan Dalleth Arta, fly fishing for Salmon and vlogging my adventures. I am charting my salmon fly fishing adventures and will profile each fishery that I attend. I may even catch a few fish 😀. All views are my own good or bad.
