Feedback & Reports

Heavy rain all morning and a half dunk whilst wading meant I was wet cold and in need of a shower and dry clothes by lunchtime :( Had 1 trout c10" on a nymph and lost a couple of smaller ones before I called it a day.

1 Trout

All caught on French leader style nymph, plenty of water bowling through but still clear enough. Heavy showers most of the afternoon. Nothing over 11 “ but nice to be fishing again after the drought.

No fish. No rise in the afternoon. River appears in good condition

Fished for 5 hours and had lots of fun. Barbel up to 9lb , chub up to 5lb and a 2lb eel . Lost 6 other large fish , possibly barbel . Lovely fishery with spectacular scenery, can't wait to return.

River very low still many swims struggling to show any flow, crease or foam line so many parts of beat showing no signs of fish holding up. Tried 4 swims finished on 2 small Barbel to krill dumbells. Lost 1 which just shot off before the hook could set itself. Blanked weed still an issue and flow still an issue as lack off.

4 Barbel

Literally blanked, not because there are no fish, I’m just shit at fishing ????
