Charlie Black tells the Gurn that the first pink salmon has been caught on the River Nairn (see image below).
He went on to tell us: "if any angler catches one it must be killed , as they are already in the Spey, Findhorn and Ness. Also to report it to the NAA at Pat Frasers, or the Water Bailiff.
These fish are another invasive species and may interfere with our precious Atlantic Salmon that are in the river Nairn. The Fish was caught at Spindrift and others have been spotted there.
There is currently a project to try and get them out of the river as they are now spawning."
