Our rivers are subjected to excessive abstraction and pollution from plastics, pesticides, herbicides, silage sap, road salt, phosphates and nitrates and their ecosystems are being attacked by non-native species like the signal crayfish and demon shrimp. Meanwhile, our wild salmon and sea trout stocks are being decimated by lice from the burgeoning salmon farming industry and are sharing their redds with thousands of farmed salmon escapees. We need government to take action before it is too late. S&TC have done great work in trying to force the Scottish Government to take action on salmon farms, while the water quality initiative and river fly census has been successful in demonstrating the multiple problems in our rivers - problems that cannot be ignored.

rod on the Dovey, guided by Andy Nicholson
Well known angling writer, broadcaster, TV presenter and Angling
News Editor, Andy Nicholson, will guide one rod for a day’s salmon
fishing followed by a night’s sea trout fishing on an exclusive and highly
productive 15-mile beat. This is a beat Andy knows very well, as it is
where he filmed his classic video, The Enigmatic Sea Trout. The River
Dovey needs no introduction to sea trout anglers - an internationally
famous river with a rich history of producing seriously big sea trout.
The opportunity to fish on the New Dovey Association water with an
experienced game angler is one not to be missed. Accommodation is not
included but Andy will advise the successful bidder on where to stay
locally if required. To be taken during the 2019 season on a mutually
convenient date.

all in one day. Two Estate rifles and fishing rods can be provided if

Donated by: Hughie Campbell Adamson Esq.
3S. Four days for two rods (or two days for four rods)
Salmon fishing on the Dee
Four days for two rods on different beats of the Dee, for two days on
each beat. Alternatively, four rods may fish for two days, as each beat
has the capacity for two rods. The beats are at Knappach, a few miles
downstream of Banchory, and on Drumnagesk. Both beats have superb
fly water, are relatively private, lightly fished and ideal for floating line
fishing. Fishing by arrangement with the donor in the 2019 season.
Guide Price: £600.00
Donated by: Victor Beamish Esq. and John Pelly Esq.
4S. An original oil painting by David Miller
For those fascinated by fish
and watery places, David needs
little introduction - his beautiful
works in print form have graced
countless anglers’ walls. For many
years his work has featured on
both the Environment Agency’s
coarse and migratory fish licences.
This year, we are lucky enough
to have an original work by
David. David’s subject matter in
this instance is a sea trout - an
exclusive opportunity to own
a unique piece of artwork by a
superb fish artist.

6S. One day for one gun
flighting pink footed
geese on Cockerham
Marsh, Morecambe Bay
Flighting Pink Footed Geese on
Cockerham Marsh on Morecambe
Bay, south of Lancaster, guided by
the donor. The purchaser needs to
be sound in wind, limb and have appropriate insurance! A capacity for
concealment and a fondness for mud are also desirable. The plan will be
to go to the marsh pre-dawn, and flight the geese as they leave the roost
on the high sands and go inland to feed at dawn. Whilst there are plenty
of geese - 5,000-30,000 for much of last season - nothing is guaranteed,
apart from mud and hardcore bird watching. This will be an experience
which you will not forget. If the purchaser is game, we can repeat the
process when the geese return at night.
The donor can provide an 8 bore, 10 bore or a semi-auto 12 bore
and cartridges if required. Expected bag on average is half a goose!
Doubtless, it will be hard work, but wildfowling is arguably the wildest,
most fascinating and exhilarating sport of all! Are you ready for a serious
dose of ”goose fever”? Date by arrangement in the 2019/2020 fowling
season between 1st October and 25th January, excluding Saturdays
Guide price: £600.00

trout and grayling. To be taken after Ist July 2019.

20 private beats. There are two resident fishing instructors on hand to
guide and help you find the best spots. You have three dining options
during your stay. You may eat in the award-winning restaurant, with its
chandeliers and high ceilings; the hotel bar for more relaxed bistro styledining; or try the adjacent village pub which, in a former life, was the
village police station. All three serve great tasting, freshly cooked food,
sourced from local suppliers. This lot may be taken at any time in 2019
(subject to availability) and includes room, breakfast, and fishing. Other

charge.
The Arundell Arms Hotel has been one of England’s premier fishing
hotels for more than half a century, with the previously mentioned 20
miles of its own water on the Tamar and six of its tributaries. These are
spate rivers that rise on the moors and flow through woods, farmland,
becoming larger, deepening, providing an almost infinite variety of water,
with long slow pools, gravelly runs and stickles, fast shallows and open
glides. Here you are alone all day, fishing a mile of river for wild brown
trout - shy fish that rise savagely to the fly. In the late spring the first
salmon arrive and by mid-summer, shoals of sea trout bring out the night
fishers.

pendent with sapphire eyes
A sterling silver chain suspends a
handcrafted solid silver pendent
depicting a leaping salmon with
dazzling sapphire eyes. The
craftspeople at Patrick Mavros have
excelled themselves in the manufacture
of this piece specifically for our
auction.
Patrick Mavros
- The African Luxury Brand
The Patrick Mavros brand was founded
35 years ago when the then-soldier,
Patrick, carved a pair of earrings for his
wife, Catja. She wore them to the hair
salon, where the hairdresser fell in love
with them and instantly requested a
pair for herself. From this loving gift,
the business was born into what is
recognised today as a uniquely African
and distinctively exotic, luxury brand.
The Mavros sons, Alexander, Forbes, Patrick Jnr and Benjamin are also
all passionately involved in the business. From day one the boys were
engrossed in the workshop, experimenting with materials and designs:
starting with heavy rough-hewn rock crystals they dug up from the farm,
suspended them from fishing line for their adoring and patient mother to
wear!
Marrying intricate craftsmanship with an intrepid family heritage, the
Mavros family have not only designed some of the most extraordinary
creations in Africa but have also created around them an environment
just as magical and bold.
At home, the workshops, the family homestead, the wildlife sanctuary
and the studio are all built to form a small village on the family estate in
the wild hills outside Harare in Zimbabwe.
As a business that is passionate about conservation on a global scale,
the team at Patrick Mavros were very keen to support S&TC and our
work across the UK.

Earn on the Tay system in 2019
3 days for 3 rods chasing salmon and seatrout on a private beat of the
River Earn in autumn 2019. Accommodation is not included in this lot, but
the donor can advise good accommodation locally. Big runs of fresh fish
enter the Tay and the River Earn in the late summer and autumn. Most
fish are grilse of around 6-10lbs or salmon of between 15-20lbs, with the
prospect of fish up to 30lbs. Unlike the spring and summer runs, these
fish are not going to spawn in the highland tributaries but accumulate in
the main stem of the Tay and its lower tributaries like the Earn, offering
excellent fishing opportunities. The biggest catches of the season are
often taken at this time. More and more chrome-bright fresh-run fish
have been caught in recent years right up to the end of the season and,
indeed, continue running after it.
To be taken by mutual arrangement in the 2019 season.

gentle, peaceful, arable valley before cascading down the final falls and

trout, some straying into the 8-10lbs class and it goes without saying
that the sea trout add another exciting angle to this wonderful river.

fishing lodges in Iceland.

60cm - Wall Sculpture
in pewter, copper, resin
and gold leaf by Sam
MacDonald
Sam, who now lives in Perthshire,
grew up on the Isle of Lewis
and, after 4 years at Camberwell
School of Arts and Crafts training
in Silversmithing and Metalwork,
lived on Orkney for 19 years. This
enabled his love of fishing, diving
and the sea to combine with
his developing skills in metalwork. Sam uses old, traditional metalwork
techniques to produce contemporary and unique works. He creates
impressions of fish, using the tactile effects that metal, its processes and
techniques have to offer. Travelling internationally to fly fish has opened
up new inspiration for Sam. Fishing in Venezuela, the Bahamas, and the
Dominican Republic for bonefish, permit, tarpon and barracuda have been
the source of inspiration for many recent pieces, as has salmon and trout
fishing in Iceland and Pakistan respectively.
Sam is a Signature Member of The Society of Animal Artists USA and a
member of the Redspot Artist group http://www.artangle.co.uk/redspot
He has been featured on BBC2’s ‘Coast’ programme.
‘There are many ways to record a memorable fish for posterity. But
metal? Artist Sam MacDonald works in pewter, gold leaf and brass and
he has taken many years to build a vocabulary of marks and colours in
metal. The results are stunning.’ Trout and Salmon October 2011
‘What at first glance look like paintings are more like 3D sculptures made
from metal, with a very particular character that lends itself very well to
fish and underwater subjects and a stunning amount of naturalism and
detail considering the material.’ Global Fly Fisher 2013.
‘For an artist who uses traditional metalwork techniques, capturing the
complexities of living game fish seems like a tall order. But from his
workshop in Perthshire, Scotland, Sam Macdonald creates, stunning relief
sculptures in which the fish seem to almost leap off the background.’
American Angler Nov/Dec 2011
Work has been acquired for private collections all over the world and
Sam has recently installed a large salmon piece in the prestigious
West Ranga Lodge in Iceland. In 2012 Sam had a large solo show in
The Gallery, Cork Street, London. He has also shown at various groupexhibitions in galleries including the House of Bruar, CLA Game Fairs, the
Royal Scottish Academy, The Wykeham Gallery and Visions West Gallery,
Montana.
‘My artistic endeavour is to observe and capture fleeting moments of
nature. I try to express an emotional response to something very private,
a moment shared between man and nature.’
N.B. Delivery of this lot is to be arranged by the winning bidder or
collected on the night of the auction.

Clare has been drawing and painting
since she was old enough to hold
a pencil and brush. She was an Art
Scholar at Uppingham School and went
on to study art at Edinburgh College of
Art and Leith School of Art, where she
specialised in atmospheric oil paintings.
After the birth of her first son in 2009,
in a quiet moment at her parent’s
kitchen table in Norfolk, Pheasant
Feather Art was born. She picked up
a pheasant feather from her father’s
stash, dipped it in his fountain pen inks
and started ‘’doodling’’.
Clare took this idea back to Scotland,
where she, her husband Charlie and
their two small boys live.
Clare designed the front cover for the 25th anniversary brochure of the
Scone Game Fair, as well as winning the competition for the design of
the front cover for the CLA Game Fair 2014 brochure. Shortlisted in 2014
for Wildlife Artist of the Year, Clare has worked closely with and donated
paintings to a number of charities, including Tusk Trust, Born Free
Foundation and GWCT.
Clare has donated this fantastic original artwork for our auction. The
work comes unframed to allow the purchaser to frame it to suit their
home. Delivery to be arranged by the purchaser.

Patrick Mavros Jewellery
A handmade calfskin belt with a Sterling silver buckle featuring salmon.
Patrick Mavros - The African Luxury Brand - was founded 35 years ago
when the then-soldier, Patrick, carved a pair of earrings for his wife,
Catja. She wore them to the hair salon, where the hairdresser fell in love
with them and instantly requested a pair for herself.
From this loving gift, the business was born into what is recognised
today as a uniquely African and distinctively exotic, luxury brand. The
Mavros sons, Alexander, Forbes, Patrick Jnr and Benjamin are also all
passionately involved in the business.
From day one, the boys were engrossed in the workshop, experimenting
with materials and designs: starting with heavy rough-hewn rock crystals
they dug up from the farm, they suspended them from fishing line for
their adoring and patient mother to wear!
Marrying intricate craftsmanship with an intrepid family heritage, the
Mavros family have not only designed some of the most extraordinary
creations in Africa but have also created around them an environment
just as magical and bold.
At home, the workshops, the family homestead, the wildlife sanctuary
and the studio are all built to form a small village on the family estate in
the wild hills outside Harare in Zimbabwe.
As a business that is passionate about conservation on a global scale,
the team at Patrick Mavros were very keen to support S&TC and our
work across the UK.
