A pleasant mooch upstream this morning ... bowled up at nine and walked down the road to the first bridge of the beat .... cold and low I'd describe the Arrow at the moment !!! Masses of invertebrates under the stones ... Totally stuffed with life ....

Fishing was tricky ... fished a tiny 18 Parachute Greenwells and a 18 tan f fly ... fish rising from half ten in the two long glides... and tricky cause its only a foot maybe two along those sections .. carefull casting ... had three ditto in size all about nine or ten Inches lovely fish too ...

My last was a satisfying slurp of a take on the Parachute greenwells .... and boy did he go !!! The six foot two weight was bent double !!!eventually got him to the net superb.... best Arrow brown for ages .... a beauty , maybe 16 inches .. I rested him for a time , and awaaaaaaaaaay , nice and powerful !!!! Lovely job ...

Stealth is key here at the mo ... I spent three hours here and only went up to the second bridge ... four Arrow beauties this morning and I had a dipper and the kingfisher as company .... now thats hard to beat !!!! The Arrow Valley in Spring is a sight to behold !!!

A pleasant few hours on a lovely beat.
River very low and clear, with bright sun, and very little insects hatching
There were one or two occasional risers, but not enough inscets to actully get them up and on the feed.
So a nil return, but still a nice way to pass a few hours.

Lovely day, a bit too windy but very nice scenery. No fish caught. A couple rising in the afternoon but must be only taking Welsh flies!!

Fished 8am until 4pm. River quite clear but little flow for the fly on some of the better parts of the beat.
Nothing caught. Nothing seen.
