Feedback & Reports

Water a bit high which I found made both access and wading very difficult / precarious on all but the middle section. No rises seen but caught 4 fish on heavy nymphs. Missed a few more.

Lovely afternoon. The water was as clear as I have seen it in years. Lower than expected. Caught 3 small WBT. I was introducing / teaching people how to fly cast and fish, so the return was not reflective of the beat.

Have booked before, will book again.

4 WBT and 2 small grayling. Best two brown trout about 1lb 3/4 and 2 1/2 to 3lb. All caught on spiders on droppers with a small flashback goldhead hares ear on the point. Four from the bottom of the beat two from the top. Be careful wading on the top of the beat stones very slippery after low water.

Well, we certainly arranged the weather for fishing again, seems the days we pick have been very wet this year. However the fish didn't seem to mind. Fish were taken throughout the beat on either upstream nymphs or spiders fished down and across.
This is a very well maintained beat with relatively easy access, care needed when wading as there are some troublesome and slippery boulders hiding away. It was fabulous to share the beat with an otter who regular showed but didn't seem to be bothered by our presence. Plenty of birds taking the flies that hatched fairly regularly but not enough to get the fish looking up. We had a great day but if we had caught everything we connected with it would have been spectacular. Nothing large today apart of a chub of a couple of pounds but plenty of half pounders that bodes well for the future.

A very enjoyable day on a smashing beat despite the rain.

Evening ticket. Quite quiet on the surface. A trout and a grayling from the bottom of the beat on a little comparadun, a better trout and a 2.5lb chub from Lady Alexander's pool on a small streamer at dusk.

During the afternoon a canoeist kept fooling around on the boundary between Nyth and Tyrcelyn and Abernant. Claimed to be a right bank land owner, but wouldn't give his name.
