Full bag within 1h 20mins... Happy fishing.

Fished for grayling instead, river on its bones

Mooched off to the rather lovely Edw valley again this morning , opting for the Hergest beat . . .

Dank and cool when I turned up at eight , and although low , looked fishable and trouty looking from the Bridge parking area. . . . .

Fished dry fly again this morning , catching on Parachute Greenwells and a tiny tan Klinkhammer . Great sport when you could cast into the fast water coming into a pool . Most of the morning stealthy wading was required , hence the four hours to get up to the weir !!! Lovely sport today , thirteen brownies to the net , four good ones of between ten and twelve inches , the rest around six to eight ; also two salmon parr hammered my dry too!!! All the fish were beautifully marked Edw brownies, tubby from Summer feeding!!!!

Although it was low , sport was good and if your prepared to kneel a lot and stealthy slow wading you'll get your rewards here !! That said a couple more days rain wouldn't go a miss to be honest ! In fact a week would be good.

A fun four hours this morning , got out by the weir boulders bang on midday, a slow bimble back to my truck . . . A very pleasant morning , back To The Ponderosa and some garden chores before feet and and a well earned weekend off !!! Nice . . . .

V rusty skills-wise. Very low river. Trout rising but I couldn’t quite work it out, emergers of some sort. Two nice fish on nymph but mostly fished dry to no avail. Think others just nymphing did reasonably well by comparison. Also- Broke a rod and got stung by a bee…..

All caught on gold head nymphs fished downstream. The majority caught on top pool.

River still low despite 2 damp days preceeding. A cloudy day with showers passing through on a downstream wind. Some fish hitting caddis in the streamy runs on arrival and managed a couple on a dry sedge and missed 3 more slashing rises including a substantial fish before the activity petered out from early afternoon.
