Tricky conditions, too hot and a football game was on.

Few salmon seen but we haven't managed to catch one.

Decent morning. 3 on a spinner 1 on the bottom

Arrived hopeful that the change in weather and the forecast rain and storms might get the salmon moving, but when I saw how low the river was I immediately wished I’d put a trout rod in the car!
River very low with green slim in the stiller parts and hardly enough flow to swing a fly through.
Pleasant enough day though having a picnic with my better half.

Wet start with heavy rain in the early morning. Started strongly with chub and barbel both taking a pellet. Swim slowed down and switched to sweetcorn on a hair rig that kept the chub interested through the brightening day. Finished off with a decent barbel out of the Wyebank pool. Canoeists made their appearance from 10 and kept us amused/annoyed at regular intervals. Regular fallers, pushed them off the rocks and recovered paddles from the water....

Other was an eel caught on the edge of the slack water.

5 Barbel, 10 Chub, 1 Other

Good hatch and caught one WBT on a dry fly and one on a heavy hare’s ear in the faster water. Hooked a few other fish but didn’t get them to the net.
