The Palnure Burn-The Gorge

It's Saturday the 9th of April and today I've decided not to walk with my rambling group.

I mentioned a few posts back I was suffering from a painful calf muscle.It's on the mend,but since I'm due to go down to the Lake district with the group this coming Monday I thought I'd give it this last couple of days to heal.
Instead today I'm posting a short stroll I had the other day.


I'm down at the Palnure where I encounter the Galloway Fisheries Trust chainsawing and clearing paths to the fishing pegs in preparation for the summer anglers.
No doubt new signs will be going up in the next few days.
I only visited one particular fishing peg which was 'The Gorge'.
If I get the chance during the summer I'll feature each peg on the burn.
Below is the area covered by the following photos and video clip.








I haven't fished for years,but this would be a challenge.
Lovely day.
