Spinning and worm fishing on a float. Calm conditions. Water level very low

Well , a fresher morning when I parked up at the lovely Hundred House pull in by the bridge at half ten , reading 17 degrees in my truck , and just a lovely morning ; temperature wise ….. water dipped the river , she looked a tad fresher than last time I was here , reading 12 degrees . That said six days of rain would be great for a flush through …..

The fishing was fun , only did two hours there , as had some jobs I wanted to crack on with back home , before a mountain biking session early evening . Dry fly as always , Parachute Iron Blue prospected , did the business , and it always amazes me on a stretch that looks dour , do not be deceived folks , an Edw brownie is like rentaghost, it’ll smash your dry from know where !!!! Which is what happened this morning , lovely confident splashy takes , six to the net , all between six and nine inches , lovely markings as always ……..

Plenty of insect life too , medium olives , tiny sedges at eleven , and I think alders too ….. trout we’re prepared to hammer the dry fly , although the two hours I was there , not one rise this morning . Kingfisher up and down , looked suitably well fed too , in fact a slim fast diet wouldn’t go miss , obviously hammering the minnows , and loads of them too , quite funny to watch them around your waders picking off the disturbed particles in the water …..

A fun couple of hours , always chilled out here , nothings an effort , I’m so used to the jungle in that valley now , I think my fly line dodges the vegetation on its own …. Anyway back home , no peace for the wicked , jobs , bit of scran , then out on the bike …… sorted !!!!!!!!!

Slow start to the day, managed 4 in the bag much to my surprise as I have not fished it in a few months

1 chub hard to keep bait in water long enough for a bite. Paddle boarders kayaks wild swimmers and even a couple of rubber rings definitely no room for fishing

1 Chub

Loads of bites but no catch, conditions were dry, sunny and warm

No fish
