Great March Brown hatch. Fish caught on dry Jingler-type flies over a two-hour spell around mid-day.

A very bright day with a strong easterly wind made things tricky, but there was a decent March Brown hatch with a scattering of LDOs which led to good surface activity for nearly a couple of hours from midday. One caught early on on an endrick spider but then the fish were much more responsive to a dry march brown pattern. Very fit fish, all 12"-14", and very strong.

Great day on the water. One Brown trout to the net on a nymph - 10 inches. Missed a few on the dry during the hatch that happened at around 13:00.

Lovely day, light cloud and water at a good hight. Did not see any fish rising all day, despite a couple of decent hatches. Managed a couple of small trout towards the top of the beat and one of about 1.5lb in the middle part of beat. The last one looked like it had been attacked by something (see photo) a while back but seemed fine now. All in all a really nice day, thanks WUF.

Clear skies and bright sunshine all day made for a pleasantly warm day if you could get out of the wind, which was very strong and gusting upriver. There was a small hatch around midday, but no fish rose to them. We think the brightness drove them deeper and all our takes came on weighted nymphs in the deeper pools. Four fit and healthy trout up to about 10" were released.
