Feedback & Reports

Gave the beat a thorough visit today starting at 8.00 and finishing at 6.00, covering all the pools a number of times .Tried various tubes and sink tips as well as SHFC to no avail. No fish seen or caught. May be better in a couple of days when some more colour drops out.

First day of the season for me, great to be out on such a lovely beat. Water quite high but managed to winkle out 7, a couple to 17-18”, mostly on the dry. I will be back, soon!

First time on this beat. Nice, even if quite overgrown in a few places and some trees down blocking the river. Water was lightly coloured and at a good level. Hatch of blue duns (I think) in early afternoon. A few rising fish. Caught one of these on a dry (CDC pattern) and the other on a PTN. Only managed the downstream half in 4 hours. I will be back to try the upstream half.
