Coloured river, nothing caught.

One pull in the neck of Spring Pool, and trout of 15 and 12 inches, but that was all she wrote this evening.

Some half decent trout but no salmon, the river was on the rise throughout the day and looked good however

Had a good day at Gromain today, albeit no fish caught. The river is on the low side but saw two fish rise in the middle of the Spring Pool. I picked up and destroyed a length of discarded nylon at the Heirag pool.
More water please

A very enjoyable day for 2 salmon rods (one could not make it). Only one small trout caught (on a salmon fly), but still appreciated the glorious scenery and quality of the pools. I hope I can return when the river is full of fish!...

NTR this morning, except accidental trout and a fish showed in Bridge Pool Gutter. Mixture of sunshine and cloud today, 10 inches on the gauge although I see the level picked up a couple of inches for some reason after I left.

Another very quiet day.. only saw a couple of fish rise all day and then only once. No sign of salmon at all. Caught one lively 3/4 lb trout and lost 2 good other trout, but the wind started around lunchtime and just got worse and worse. It got the point where i was trying to quickly cast in the brief moments there wasn't a blast. The wind then arrived whilst casting and blew the fly right at me several times. I gave up....

This is for B S and myself. Nothing caught and quiet on the river, no fish seen and fished hard. Better luck next maybe !!

What a splendid beat this is. Similar in nature to parts of the Shin or Teith. Some of the pools were a little slow in places at this height. The notes though were clear and easy to follow.

I fished a mixture of full intermediate, float/hover/int and full float. The bottom pools fished better at this height. It's deep in places but nothing showed. Possibly the nicest pool was Herons run.

Wading whilst not easy was better than described. Some of the walkways felt like they were too close to the flow but maybe they are better in low water.

Not that it helped but I fished a combo of size 9 Bann Special, size 12 Kitza Killer and a small cascade. All on a 12' long 12lbs tapered leader due to intermitant sun. It never rained but was more overcast in the afternoon. All felt good but if there were any fish they did not feel the same.

Slight colour in the water still but not too bad.
