11 x grayling 6-15 inches, 1 x out of season trout 12 inches, mostly trotting or Tenkara. A mild, dry day with the river quite clear.

11 Grayling

Grayling caught trotting in the Orchard, with grayling also lost in the Home Catch. All returned.
Bagful of river litter removed, except for a really old leather hobnail boot, which looked just fine where it was. A great day out.

5 Trout, 4 Grayling

Fishing a maggot feeder we had the surprise grayling in the morning and the chub, around four pounds at dusk on a cheese paste hook bait. The water was brisk and coloured but by no means in flood considering the season.

The River was up and coloured. It looked ideal but I couldn't track down the grayling. Fished the float and small feeder and ended up with 6 small brownies.

River dropped below 1.3m on Buith gauge and very clear . Late afternoon session and soon found the fish , feeding dead maggots and trotting a single fake red maggot . Finished with 13 grayling including a few in the 1.5lb bracket , but as is often the case lost one at the net which was a good 2lbs . Fair few cormorants and gosander about and a couple of grayling appeared to have had close encounters with these predators.
