2 Trout, 1 Grayling

Great to be back on one of my favourite beats. It was unusual to see the water so low and crystal clear, especially this time of year. A gusty wind made for challenging fishing with the French leader, but I managed to fish the majority of the beat. As the light faded, I’d caught just 2 small grayling shots and 2 oos trout (one was a lovely fish around the 2lb mark). This is an interesting beat, but take care amongst the bedrock, felt soles and a wading staff are advisable!

No catch

Couldn't find the Grayling and they didn't find me! V Chocolatey but nice to be out

Very cold day -6 when I parked up. Needless to say no activity, but a glorious day, will try again when it warms up a bit.

Very cold morning -3 ground was solid and the river was low and clear new I was in for a hard day decided to fish an in-line maggot feeder on a 4oz tip, baited up a few swims had a small Chub first cast didn't get a knock for the rest of the morning. Changed over to meat in the afternoon and sat it out in the swim that I had the Chub just as the light was going the tip sprang into life with a typical Chub bite after fighting to keep it out of the snags I had my first decent fish of the day 4lb 9oz Chub, well chuffed. Had a chat with bailiff in the day gave me a lot of advice on the beat which was appreciated.

2 Chub

It has been a cold day, around -4C all day, ice at the margins, wading a bit of a trial. Only 1 Grayling between us, caught on the float, not even a bite on the fly, but a lovely day on a very beautiful river.

Air temperature minus 6 on arrival, river in good condition but I think the temperature was to extreme , saw two Mink during the day

Lasted three hours before I started shivering. ...Rewarded by a chunky grayling on a ptn
