Dave, When you said you missed a couple, the KitKat advert came to mind.
Here is a LINK you may find of interest.
I find it hard to believe it took two years to get the shot on the best salmon river in the country.
I had two KitKat moments last night, a few members of our club met up in Durham for a night of photography. I took my Ist D and two sets of batteries, the ones that hold their charge for a year??.I did not get a dozen pics before I had two sets of flat batteries. I enjoyed the walk and it was not raining.

However I am game to have a look.
As Polchraine said the general time for the upper reaches of the river Ribble is Mid Oct - mid November. On the same river lower down at Paythorne near Clitheroe the Sunday nearest the 20th November is traditonally known as Salmon Sunday. People pack onto the bridge over the river to watch the spectacle and then have lunch in the pub. (Fish and chips)
I have also checked some wildlife records (2007) and salmon were reported to be leaping around this time at these falls.

Just trying to help. I have been fishing for over fifty years the last forty on the lower and middle stretches of the river Wear. I was told the fish were streaming through Durham on the 26th Oct but they did not hang around. I must say I prefer to catch sea trout as they splash and leap out of the water on contact. Now that's the photo to get.
Good luck with your project.

You will find in PS there are many ways to accomplish any effect. I would have thought two minutes is not much of a pain.

Make a Copy of the original and flip that one. You will need to make the canvas size of the original double the height (bottom only) then drag the copy onto the original.
Hope that points you in the right direction.
