Feedback & Reports

Quite difficult conditions. Bright and sunny with a strong cool breeze for most of the day. Low water continues with stretches between riffle sections clear and barely moving. No significant hatches through the day or evening. Main action on nymph in upstream section, broken water, 1 brown trout landed and returned.

A gusty wind and occasional sharp showers kept fly emergence to a minimum so with a dearth of rising fish it was Euro style nymphing tactics again, in a river noticeably higher than on previous visits . Most fish fell to the #14 GRHE on the dropper today. Managed to lose 3 brownies in the streamier water due to aerobatic antics.

Four fish to 3/4lb caught in a couple of hours fishing, high wind and showers made it tricky fishing. Caught on a Kate McLaren or black spider variant with all fish returned.

9” trout caught on a small nymph, very low water, tricky fishing.

Almost no rises but the fish were into nymphs - especially an orange perdigon. Presumably that looks like a caddis nymph in the faster water.

Didn't fish. Too windy.

A little wind and rain today but some fish. The substrate is very slippery.
