I had a great day on the Wye at Lower Symonds Yat. The water was quite low and the weather was warm, over cast initially then clearing with some sun coming through. I focused on the pools from Slaughter Crib to Biblins Run in the morning and caught a coloured cock fish (80cm long, estimated at around 12 lb) just under the bridge in the Camp Run at around midday. It was caught on a cascade pattern.
These pools are great fly water and with the river levels quite low, the wading is pretty straight forward. In the afternoon I went to Martins Bar and Martins Pool, where there were a lot of fish showing. These pools are much more tricky with the fly.
This is a great beat in a magnificent setting. Being October and a Friday I only encountered 2 canoes, which both passed by respectfully.

Fly on intermediate and floating lines. no offers, saw only a few fish. River still a bit high. Access to water on this beat is very poor indeed when cannot go in at one place and wade a great length. Will not fish it again
