Fishing Passport online booking service very easy to use and lots of excellent local information provided via email. Wonderful days fishing . Will definitely return to this beat. Large salmon (est 6-8lb) seen jumping in lower pool in afternoon.

A well maintained beat with good access to the top beat, parking was good although seemed a bit awkward parking in front of the gate, maybe access to field to park would be good. Lower beats gate along the road was not found so only 1 angler managed to fish this section by wading to no avail.
Plenty of lovely pools and runs to fish however only 1 trout was caught of around 6 inches in a red headed Loki.

Managed to lose the top 4 sections of an 8 section Hardy Smuggler graphite travel rod in the vicinity of the Bridge Pool (right by the tree with the sign). Please contact the Booking Office on 01874 712074 if found.

most fish came from Upper beat to dries. Fishing deeper waters coming into pools.

I fished only the upper part of the beat so maybe the grayling were in the lower piece! Only caught one out of season trout, no grayling.

Water surprisingly clear and at a good level. Tried nymphing with French Leader, shortlineheavy nymphs and then longer leader with spiders and heavy jig hook nymphs. Hard work in cold conditions @4° most of the day. Two grayling both 12" to caddis pattern.
