River was very low and conditions generally poor. Fished fly on 10ft rods, AFTM4 for trout and 7/8 for salmon, and please note I fished only the Eggleston Hall beat as my party were staying there. No salmon whatever showed during the entire week. The 6 trout I hooked were small (maximum 9 inches) and all returned unharmed to the river. As a comment, I have to say that river access and wading were rather difficult throughout the beat, with the low river exposing many round and slippery boulders.

I parked in the recreation ground in Gray Lane and fished between the cottages and sewage works. All on dries, klinkhammer and grey duster.

Huge hatch of olives at 3 pm, plenty coming to the fly but not sticking. Tried all sorts with no success. Very cold day, nothing rising after 4.30. Only fished 2 hours. Lovely water, good value.
