Weather warm and dry river shade low.
Only saw one fish caught him about 1 lb. Beat very good could do with more fish in it but a good day out.

The river was slightly coloured from recent rain and the weather conditions were good.
Despite that all the fish were hiding, and I had one of those days of knots & tangles where nothing seemed to go my way.
No fish caught as a result, but a nice afternoon spent on a pleasant stretch of river.

The Teme was still pushing quite hard with considerable colour. I did not see or experience any fish activity. Lovely day and the Red Kite that I saw was one of the biggest I have ever seen. A return in about ten days might prove productive but I'm in Scotland then.

3 x trout 6-10 inches, Monnow Gosling. A very humid day with cloud and spots of rain - without actually raining properly if you see what I mean. The bottom end of this fishery is really in a desperate case now for lack of water. I met the EA rep down there who was checking the conditions and he told me they are quite close to making a decision for fish rescue, as has been done in the past during dry summers on this section of river which has a great tendency to lose its flow. I did find a few small ones rising at the top end, but I think I have missed my chance on this one for this year, or at least until we have some serious rain.

River very low and nothing rising. Saw a few trout but tried nymphs and dry flies to no avail.

A lovely warm sunny day. A lot of insect life about, especially midges. The river was very low and gin clear. No fish rising, saw a few trout in the depths. One turned and followed my nymph but was not tempted to take it. Numerous variety of flies and nymphs tried but could not tempt any fish.
Despite the ‘nil return’ an excellent day out with an old friend, situated in a most scenic part of Shropshire. Thoroughly enjoyable. With more conducive conditions this would be an ideal spot. Will certainly return here.

River quite low and dropping. Morning overcast with occasional rise. After several misses caught a strong WBT around 9''. Afternoon sunny with masses of fly activity but no sign of fish. Plenty of other wildlife seen including a small deer.
Parking down track no problem - a great location.
