One fish lost in Slaughter Crib. Lovely fly water but very busy on the banks and canoes. No other fish seen.

Poor conditions with low water and bright sun but a very enjoyable afternoon on this beautiful beat. Some excellent fly water in the centre with several good pools and easy wading.

As we were fly fishing we headed for beats at the upstream end of the fishery. However being one of the hottest days of the year so far and being a weekend, we were certainly not alone on the river. Started casting some flies at Biblins crib only to be invaded by a large group of people swimming and generally thrashing about. Too many to confront. Moved down to Cobs cross which was a delight to fish but again interrupted by an amarda of canoes who seemed to gravitate to our lines. No fish seen all day. It was also very bright.

Excellent stretch of river with nice variation in Pools fast & slow & very easily accessable by driving along the track which runs the full Length of the beat. Seen several salmon Showing, had very good chance of nice fresh Salmon on spinner but didn't connect properly in slaughter crib.

Lost a good size fish in Martin's Pool first few casts with a spinner. Plenty of salmon crashing about as far as the eye could see but we couldn't get them to take. Adam Fisher was very helpful and showed us all the access points for wading and spinning. Lovely stretch of water and would like to fish it with a touch more water on.

Saw couple of fish jump above Martin's Island, none caught.

No salmon caught or seen.

A lovely day fishing on this particularly spectacular beat, but nothing seen or caught. Water may have been too warm at 62 degs. Not hot enough to stop the may fly from hatching which they periodically did in amazing numbers.

River condition seemed to be good and the beat is well maintained but no salmon were seen nor were there any tugs on various flies presented at various depths but I will probably try this beat again.

Saw a couple of fish move but only caught a lovely 3.5lbs sea trout.
