Even with the conditions and water perfect we found it hard to locate the fish. 6/7 brown trout to 12" to hand and approx the same on long distance catch and release. Possibly the water levels were a bit to low. All fish caught on heavy beaded nymphs or spiders.

I am a relative novice and did not catch anything but I did have the pleasure of a otter swim right by me and then took himself off into the bank, gobsmacked!! beautiful river, thoroughly enjoyed myself. Thanks WUF for all your hard work and to Dai for the advice he gave me, I'll be back!!

Well there is never two days the same!!!! Conditions were perfect, water clear and at good height, but where were the fish? Very little fly life on the water and what was, was minute. Fished hard all morning concentrating on spiders and nymphs but to no avail. Decided to fish the dry fly "small adams" and took three 10" browns fishing the rifts blind also a few small salmon parr. On the whole a disappointing day fishing wise " probably just me fishing poorly", but fantasic surrounding on a beautiful beat. Will be back!!!

Hard to know what to say... a stunning Beat, Easy wading, clear water for the best part of the day. Some small WBT seen rising but not a fish caught between 4 rods, which was a little dissappointing. But then that is why it's called fishing and not catching!! Sure to Return!

First time fishing this beat and I was not disappointed. 5 B.Trout to 12" and about half dozen small feisty Salmon parr. The water level was good and the clarity in the faster water was excellent, but the deeper slower glides were a bit cloudy. The best method was fishing ptn and spider "waterhen boa" duo down and across in areas where this was possible. Later in the day dry fly was effective "tan klink" to fish rising now and then. Plenty of fly life, caddis, upwings and big yellow sally mayfly. encountered quite a few goosanders.
On a whole a fantastic day and I will be back thank you WUF.

One fish of about 12 inch was caught on hares ear nymph. That was the only fish we got close encounter in the day and it was returned safely. The day was beautiful and the water was crystal clear. We could see fish but it meant they could see us too. Tough fishing.

River in lovely condition. Only managed to fish for a few hours in afternoon. No rising fish and sadly drew a blank.

13 WBT between 2 rods, all 6 - 10 inches. River not too high and wadable throughout. Dry caddis patterns worked from late morning onwards.

First time on the beat. With that little bit of extra water on it was a very demanding day. It was however rewarded with a day out in a very beautiful almost Jurassic part of the country. Unable to stay late so missed out on the best. Fished dry sedges all day with 3 trout to 10 inchs.

No fish during the day but 5 trout between 6 and 9inches to dry olives and 1 on partridge and orange between 7 and 9pm. None were taken obviously.
