Feedback & Reports

River about 18" higher than ideal, makes this beat impossible to cross given that it's double bank. Not one to fish until the levels have dropped for sure.

A more lively beat, even in this low water, than Greenbank yesterday. It’s been a few years since I was last here and I had forgotten a) how overgrown it is and b) how many dog walkers and stone throwers there are on the other bank. I mooched around with the trout rod and had a few takes to an olive emerger but nothing stuck. There was a good trout head and tailing towards the bottom of the (dangerously decrepit) walkway. But it ghosted away once I started casting to it. I’m not sure this beat is worth the money if I’m really honest.

Entry path down from gate fully overgrown, brambles and nettles, couldn’t see path , fell over in the stingers , not the best start . Also directions can be improved to travel down less overgrown lanes, I came out a different way that was much better
However the beat is lovely, enjoyed the fishing , lots of browns visible

River low and very clear and fish were spooky. Sad to find this beat quite dilapidated these days. The description on the website should be updated to warn that the walkway is hazardous. That said there are still plenty of fish and was treated to one very visual take of my dry fly. Couldn’t crack what his brethren wanted though!
