Feedback & Reports

With brilliant sunshine to enjoy I knew it would be a difficult days fishing even sharing the beat with a couple of Salmon anglers. Started under the bridge Czech nymphing with 2.5mm jig hooked flies. Not a lot of action even with a good flow coming down. Fished right up to the head of the run and picked up a nice 8/10 inch trout sitting in the slack water. Moved up passed the hut to the Gutter & picked a nice grayling on a jig hook. Even had a go on the dry fly and missed two takes. Nice to be out on such a nice day and able to fish more of this beat.

2 Trout, 1 Grayling

Again nothing to report. The river is visibly going down while we have been here for the last three days, rain is badly needed.

Blank for both of us, but a lovely way to spend a day.

Freezing cold with moderate wind. Many tea breaks taken. No salmon to be seen...tried everything. Only 1 trout about 1/2 kg on nymph.

1 Trout

Water perfect height, slightly tinged and 10 degrees c, with overcast sky.. However nothing caught; really pleasant afternoon none the less!

Hard days fishing nothing caught or seen

A lot of water but fished on for a couple of hours with no joy

River rose over a foot as soon as I turned up! Long drive home

Didn't get to fish, went skiing instead !!

1 Brown trout and 1 Grayling on a red neck ptn at the start of the day. Then at 12:30 a hatch of March Brown and LDO started and then the wind picked up and put them back down. There was an occasional fish rising so I put a very delicate small dry fly with cdc wings which was smashed on the first cast by an 8 inch wbt. Unfortunately the fly was destroyed by the trout so I had to compromise and use a similar fly, without the same result. The March Browns and LDO’s continued to hatch sporadically throughout the afternoon until we left at 4pm.
Final tally was 3 Grayling and 5 Brown trout, it was a pleasure to take fish off the surface again, happy days!

6 Trout, 2 Grayling
