The were some nice fish up stream of the beat in the deeper water .. they wasn’t feeding on the mayfly’s but I could see there fins coming up on the surface I had a couple of takes on a nymph but nothing landed .

Lovely river! First visit to this beat. Dry. Clear water. A few fish rising and a few mayfly, but fish not interested. Tricky wading, but easier with wading stick. Tried a variety of flies and leaders without success.

It was the last May bank holiday weekend and a group of 3 families and their children were floating down the river in inflatable rings - can't blame them as it looked like fun. It didn't affect us too much - we went upstream of them and they left after a few hours.

Grabbed an evening ticket as in the area, but as it turned out, only managed a couple of hours. Headed to the top of the beat as another angler lower down. Rose a couple of fish to dries, then as the rain started at 7pm, had a good fish on - briefly. Heavens had now opened and looked set-in, so headed back to the car. Lovely looking beat. Will return for a longer session.
Cracking early dinner at the Walnut Tree cafe prior to fishing.

Hot day , plenty of swimmers and dogs splashing in the water , the suggested park site close to the post office in impossible to use because is aside the rod and plenty of people are using it for shopping , I'd to park in the center village and walk for one mile , after you payed the permit and drove for hours to enjoy it is looking like you are joked , but I'll give another chance again because the stretch is beautiful and I enjoyed walk on it , please Fishing Passport arrange another park site with the river rights owner you can'nt send people here and leave them struggling around for parking like idiots to enjoy what they have payed for .
