I gillied today for my friend Matt Cooper who landed two nice, clean silver fish, 8 and 10lbs on a small shrimp fly.

2 Salmon, 2 Trout

Booked both this and the beat above so was only on here for a few hours but had plenty on short time. Can only seem to put single digits in the form, but had 15 in 3 hours and lost nearly as many. Most came to peeping caddis, but a number on the dry as well (sedge). Most 8-9 inches but two at 1ft. Great day, great beat - full of fish.

15 Trout, 1 Grayling

Only on here for a couple of hours in the rain, but great nonetheless. 6 trout all on sedge, and lost plenty that threw the fly by e relentlessly leaping! Good little beat.

Started at 7am, but despite missing an early take, no other fish until around 9am when the sun started to shine through the clouds. Throughout the morning I had a couple of barbel (up to 6lb) and a couple of chub (3 - 4lb). It went quiet between 12 and 13:30ish, then rolling barbel and chub signalled the return of a feeding spell. I went on to have a further 3 Chub (lost one) and two barbel to 7lb 12oz. We had to leave at 15:00, otherwise I am sure I would have had more. All fish fell to feeder pellet and boilie tactics

4 Barbel, 5 Chub

Water over the stones and coloured. Couple fish seen on the beat. No interest in fly or spinner.

Tough day. 1 small trout caught on a dry before the heavens opened. Plenty of fly life around and occasional rises.
