Feedback & Reports

A perfect fishing day. A fish lost within 5 mins of starting. Another pull and pluck before a second positive take and a 6lber netted. Down to the next pool, right in the hot spot and a slow draw led to my second, around 9lb. All action to a #Bann Special. River quietended down around lunchtime and shortly after and shot up!! A stunning beat with nature abundant and scenery to savour.

The river was quite coloured but we fished it with great (misplaced) optimism anyway. It is a lovely stretch of water. Weather rather wet until mid afternoon.

3 Trout

Fished from 11am till 4pm. Took 3 browns on small nymphs in Gravel Catch and 2 Grayling. Missed 2 sizeable fish or what i thought were sizeable. All fish caught were released and between 10-12 inches. Perfect day, slight cloud cover, no wind.

3 Trout, 2 Grayling

2 grayling, 9 brownies. Caught on mix of dry & wet fly inf. daddies. We found two access gates were padlocked, one at top end of beat to get access to the foot path, and the access to footpath in middle of beat near the bridge.
(WUF note: former can be scaled but builders should have left access to the latter- will investigate)
