Please enjoy our latest short video made this September on the Umba River, Russia...

Just a short update to my report from last week on the Umba...

Call me fickle but I have found a new favourite river and it's also knocked my favourite river on the Kola peninsula off the top spot too.

After a difficult two weeks, the season on the Umba is now really beginning to pick up.  It is very hard to know if this delay is because of unusually high water, an extraordinary and unexplained influx of pinks or simply that the whole of the Kola appears to be running later than normal – or a combination of all three?

Stop Press! 6 fish landed on the Umba today and all Atlantics too.

For the first time in our 26 year history of managing the Varzuga, we have been forced to cancel the second week of the season due to a late ice break...
