Fished hard for no reward

A huge disappointment to be fair. Three of fished hard one of us was on the river by 6-30am , but nothing doing, the beat we thought must be holding fish but not a sign of anything a couple of trout hit the spinner but that was it. We came to the conclusion that there is not a lot about, just the odd one or two if your lucky

Arrived at the top of this long and majestic beat to find the river at a lovely height and recently cleared. Wading was challenging with the push of water and took me a while to build my confidence, wading stick is a must.
Nothing rising so started with a klink and dink. No response to this so switched to nymph and spider.
Caught on and off throughout the day finishing with a dozen, 5 trout and 7 Grayling with a couple of good fish throwing the hook. My friend JJ also fared well taking 5 trout, strangely no grayling.
All fish were returned.

10 Trout, 7 Grayling

River looked bang on, very bright overhead, saw one fish but only had 4 gutsy trout.

4 Trout

Nice evening on Gromain, got down a little early so started on the nymphs and had a small brownie then a chub and then hooked into what I thought was a monster grayling put up a good fight but was a Shad of a couple of pounds good fun on a #3 ! The spinner fall didn’t really get going pick a few more browns up right at the top of the beat.

5 Trout, 2 Chub, 1 Other

Did not fish owing to lockdown regulations

Did not fish in order to comply with Government instructions not to travel unless absolutely necessary. Incidentally, the advice presently of the Angling Trust is that no one should go fishing. see the Angling Trust website for further information.

sorry did not fish unfortunately self isolating . Better luck may be next time

Pretty chilly in the frosty fog . I stuck it for 3 hrs wading well into the deeper stretches with a bug and small copper head ptn. Never found the grayling but had a nice OOS BT on the ptn.
