River perfect, Weather very bright. Most of the action late evening!

One caught on downstream wet fly. Other two were to a CDC emerger

We started at the lower reach of the beat and worked our way up just beyond the weir. After that things got a bit too overgrown to progress further. We hooked 6 fish between us (three each) but most wriggled their way off the hook before they came to hand. One brown trout landed, five escapees and numerous misses - many of which cost a fly as the rebound took the line into the nearest tree! Most came to a nymph of one sort or another with one very spectacular take on a mayfly imitation - there were still many about.

A hard day with just a small chub, dace and eel. Most of the "wall" is inaccessible as it hasn't been strimmed but maybe there is a safety issue here and this is deliberate to stop access.
