Ferox '85

also once a member of the scientific team at Pitlochry which inspired my interest in the search for Scottish Ferox Trout, which is as Ron Greer describes in his book " Ferox trout and Arctic Charr "

can be,  " a brain numbing, bum-numbing fishless eternity. Those who will survive will be relatively few and will thoroughly deserve their fish. "
