Well, he's still annoying W.H. from Craven arms- 3 trout to my one and some takes. Fish to 10", all returned. Tricky fishing- you have to be on your toes to keep your flies out of the shrubbery. Great fun fishing the pools: scorching 25'c today, bright sun and low water. Cold cider, beer and Steven Bull's ham pies from Much Marcle produce market did go a long way to reviving us at bate time. Bugs about (saw a chaffinchy thing take a medium size up wing fly on the wing). Only a few rises though. Don't be dismayed by access when you first arrive- through the gate by the lay-by for the downriver section, follow the hedge and towards the mill and through the paddock, you will find new styles and low gates. To get to the top half, we went back to the lay-by and through the gate a bit further along the road- styles are in view.

2 rainbow trout caught on worm and returned safely. Struck too early on the last knock of the day.

Great day on a wonderful stretch of river, which has an excellent head of grayling and some cracking trout too. The bright sunshine didn't really affect the fishing, many of the grayling were taken on small dries but most of the better fish came to the nymphs. Certianly a challenging beat, with slippery bedrock and heavily wooded areas but very rewarding, if you are willing to keep mobile and explore as much water as possible.

Took advantage of after 5.00 pm booking. Never really had a lot of luck here but access is so easy decided to give another try.
Beautiful hot evening down on the "Bondi"beach stretch towards the bottom of beat.
Ladies frolicking around in bikinis made for a if .."CARLSBERG DID FISHING!!!" ....moment!!!
After this wet and wild show the fish seemed to become excited as well..
The witching hour was quite prolific with barbel coming one after the other. All coming to cheesy garlic boilies on ledger tactics.
Some good chub on the float made for a very memorable few hours!!!
