Didn't fish, river chocolate brown

Unbelievably hot evening, river worryingly low, I was delighted to rise anything at all and consider 4 little uns a good result under the circumstances. Couldn't find access via field to left of pub, ended up using the bridge a little downstream. The pint afterwards in The Trout Inn was the most refreshing I've had for many a month....

Three small trout, river up six inches on the day before with a little colour

Nice little beat, although quite challenging to navigate as the river is quite overgrown in places and the access is not great.

Having said that, I had a great few hours. Landed two little brown trout (7 and 10 inches) on a PTN and lost another two. Covered about half the beat in two hours but could have gone slower.

Evening ticket, fished 6-10:30pm. 3 trout, the best a 17-18 inch lump which took a size 18 parachute adams. Found the best fishing in the 'Chain Pool', also easier to access. The bracken, brambles and nettles making it hard work to get into some of the lower sections.

River was still slightly coloured by the rain this week.

We fished from 17-22:30 200 yrds upstream bridge at the estate down 300 yards downstream.
Each caught 1 trout 10-12”.
Rising fish where ocasional. Some larger sibbling spents in shallow still bordersites but selective and hard to temptate.
Good variety of insects after 20:00 i.e. yellow sallys , BWO, Red spinners and a hatch of medium grey sedges around 21:30 but had no waterboiling effect on the trout. Nice beat although just seen 20%.
Thursday revenge ;-)
