Wash out river was still high, it’s dropping quite quickly should be good tomorrow if it stays dry.

Missed the first 5 but finally got dialled in to catch the 6th before having to head off. Wonderful little session, only had time for the lower half, plenty of water and lots of fly life including some mayfly. My May didn’t work - all rises were to klinkhammers: black or olive+grey

Another big water day but rather better weather than yesterday. Sadly, very little of the beat was fishable due to high flows, despite the water clearing slowly through the day. Did a lot of walking and climbing up and down slippery banks. Very little hatching and nothing seen rising despite the sunny conditions. The pool immediately below the aqueduct provided the only substantive fishing, so fished it up three times! One 12” trout on GRHE nymph variant was the only reward (returned). This is very definitely not a beat for a big water day.

Recent rains made for a high and very coloured river, but I managed to tempt a few fish with a nymph including one lovely fish of 2lbs.

Good level and lightly coloured. First time on this beat - nice wild stream even if a bit of a scrambling challenge in places - fallen trees blocking the river near the upstream limit. Good hatch of flies but no sign of anything rising. Upstream nymph was my choice and had one brown trout , about 9 inches, on a PTN. I will be back!
