WOW what a beat, absolutely amazing with such a variety of water. A lot of insect life pretty much right throughout the day but only saw a handful of rises.
Didn’t manage to get to the top end of the beat as there is private property and didn’t see a public footpath.
Didn’t manage to land anything but a small trout went for an Elk Hair Caddis but he didn’t stay on long enough, I’m sure someone more experienced than me would have landed him.

Access to the river is relatively easy but Wading was tricky as it is pretty rocky but this is explained by the synopsis on the passports webpage but I will add it is VERY slippery. I have felt soles and almost lost my footing more than once so I would urge people to be cautious if they go.
There is also a nice looking cafe at the start of the beat should you fancy a spot of lunch. I didn’t try it myself but will probably do so next time

Warmest day of the year. Mostly sunny. Could not find the trout apart from a few fish rising sporadically. Lots of swimmers and people picnicking beside the river. Access good. Wading challenging.

Fished for a few hours on an evening ticket. Euro nymphing and all fish caught on orange tag nymph. All fish around a 1lb and returned safely. Water in great condition.

great to be back on this beat, crazy wading at this height though.

River high and turbid. Did not fish at all.

Just a couple of trout to a ptn today. Changeable conditions but river at a good height. Fished from 10am-13:00 but still a few hatches and the very occasionally splashy rise.
