River Dee below Dinnet Bridge It is mid morning and overnight snow has already melted on the north bank but remains in the shade of the trees on the south bank. The huts are for use by those who are fishing on the river. There was no one on the banks as, in Scotland, fishing is not allowed on Sundays for salmon and other migratory fish.
