Feedback & Reports

Maybe its just me - but i thought access to the river was pretty tough and most of it wasnt accessible at all.

Booked an evening ticket but got badly delayed by traffic after work - only one lane on Severn Bridge west-bound (for no apparent reason, sigh). However I did get a couple of hours in and to be honest it was hot early on so I probably ended up fishing at the right time anyway. There were a few olives and spinners around which encouraged the trout to feed when the temperature dropped - caught three off the top on spinner patterns, could have had a few more which came off the hook. Lovely beat as always, kingfisher hunting next to me in the shallows of one section and repeatedly taking small fish to it's burrow in the opposite bank, lots of sand martins and a common sandpiper there too, and was nice to meet the owner and one of the neighbouring season rods on the other bank for a chinwag - an idyllic summer evening which more than made up for the long travel delay!

Not fishable due to river level and flow

A wet (torrential) day so no surface action. The fish were found in a couple of sections of faster water, but these are small due to the low water level. Fished from 12-4pm.

Two smaller trout on nymph early on. A somewhat fortunate capture of a good one in the evening on a dry. Today was certainly a learning day: June is unlike March but equally unlike September.

Lovely beat with loads of bird life and not a few trout. Had one on a small olive but thoughts of getting more in evening scuppered by a chill wind bringing rain.

Fished midday until dusk. Overcast and windy at times but the trout were rising throughout the day. Hatches of yellow may dun, LDOs, BWOs and the odd mayfly. All fish taken on dries - olive CDC Emerger and parachute Adam’s the most effective. Best fish around 19 inches / 2.5lb.
