Feedback & Reports

Fished the Fly in very good weather and river conditions, however, the beat has limited fly water and access is neglected. The Bank track is considerably overgrown. Nothing caught, Nothing seen.

As I hadn’t fished this beat before, and as a Father’s Day treat before breakfast, I fished a very small section of this lovely beat for a couple of hours. Some lovely looking pools, which would benefit from a slight pruning around. However, managed 3 where pools were more accessible and i didn’t mess up back cast. Will return to explore further next time!

Fished 9am to 1pm on the 3 bits of faster water towards the bottom of the beat. Lots of missed take or fish shaken off but landed 10 brown trout from 6” to 12” and a couple of Grayling. Most fish taking a tungsten caddis, and a few on a pink tag.

Fished from 9:30 to 14:00. Weather mostly overcast with the odd drizzly shower.
Very little surface movement but had success with a nymph setup, and had most fish on a beaded caddis including one belting fish of around 2lb, a PB for me. Missed just as many as I caught.
Fantastic best, stunning scenery.

A really wild beat. Loads of trees across the stream which look quite recent falls.
Water level was very low and fish easily spooked. Managed to Induce a few splashy takes but nothing that came to hand.

Lots of chub but we couldn't tempt any barbel, apart from a small one, from their usual haunts. Also worth noting that some chub were leaking milt from their vents so possibly still some spawning going on. Tried different sizes of pellet and caught on them all.

2 anglers first time fishing a brook. No fish caught or even seen. I blame the novice anglers not the brook. Beautiful area although very overgrown and quite a bit of rubbish.
