Feedback & Reports

A pleasant day "social distancing" on the Edw. The full and fast-flowing river restricted wading somewhat and I could get no response to the nymphs I was offering. Doubtless the heron that I disturbed below Hergest falls was more successful. It was good to see early signs of Spring, but a shame about the plastic waste that is everywhere you look if you look hard enough.

8 fish caught, all on the bottom using worm.

Plumbed for the Arrow at Kington this morning , arriving at nine had a peep over the bridge , just about fishable with tungsten nymphs running fairly fast but clear . . . .

The down side of the field side now is that the farmer has put up new fencing , three strand barbed wire !!! Would you believe it , and no crossing styles whatsoever , seems odd , but I'm.sure hes keen too take each fishermans twelve quid for a day, but cant even put up two or three crossing areas over the fencing !!! So anyone who fishes it take an old potatoe sack or similar , even in summer flows theres a need to get out and loop round some pools into the field. . .

Still cold water , but caught two very small brownies, six and seven inches respectively , taken on a tungsten red tag , was good fun , but with the height only a few areas fishable at the mo . I did check little Brook below the bridge , that runs into the Arrow , that's running clear , so good news !!

A fun couple of hours and two lovely little Arrow beauties on the nymph , perhaps the WUF can persuade the landowner to knock up two or three styles to make entry and exit of the river a tad easier !! A fun morning back here soon , happy days!!!!!
