River still quite low despite recent rain but carrying just a hint of colour, weather warm and mostly sunny.
Fished the upstream beat in the morning, some flies of various types coming off, including yellow May Duns and later a few proper Mayflies made a welcome appearance. Lots and lots of rises immediately below the bridge but catching proved more difficult than I expected but trial and error with different flies soon had a couple in the net before I moved on up stream.
After this things slowed as the sun got very warm, but eventually I found a fish rising on the far side in flat water before the water broke into rapids, it took my fly then charged off downstream into the fast water, this was a very good fish but finally came off after my hook broke on the bend!...gutted.
The afternoon was spent on the lower half of the beat the fishing improved as the sun started to lose it's intensity and Mayflies started to appear, I took another five trout, missed some great takes and lost another big fish. All fish between 6-13in. taken on dries in great condition and all returned.
