about

The Tay Estuary is a busy and polluted waterway with many obstacles and hazards facing the running Salmon. The river has nets operating from the Railway Bridge at Wormit all the way upriver to Perth.

lyrics

They waited then for winter's rain to flush downriver towards them, spilling its traceable path of freshness amongst the pollutants.
Disease spread amongst them and sea-lice dug into their flanks while they waited.

Eventually a great storm in the Glens, filled the lochs and tributaries and the fresh waters
They followed the source of the freshness west to Tayport where they found the freshwater channel.
Under the Road Bridge and under the Rail Bridge, to Wester Flisk, to Newburgh, upriver towards Perth.

Just below the Friarton Bridge, Stanley and 10 of the other fish ran straight into a net.
