Last trip before season end. Had determined to fish dry fly only regardless!
Tough conditions. River very low, warmish day. Nevertheless three wbt to the net - klinkhammer and grey duster.
Marvellous.
Thanks also to Mr Charlie Nutting who timed dog walking activity to meet me on arrival and provide a warm welcome and helpful advice.

Great day on the Wye, water low mostly small fish 1-3lbs, but late afternoon an amazing 11lb fish. All on the feeder.

Struggled to get a bite, which is unusual for this beat, have fished it many times before but the weed was a nightmare

Well looked the perfect conditions when I set off from the outskirts of Leominster , cool , 13 degrees and a slight breeze , thinking it would be a good day at the Titley beat of the River Arrow . . . .

Arrived at ten tackling up with the usual six foot , two weight , small gold head PTN , and mooched down to the footbridge , strewth the water was low low and clear as gin , although could do with a good flush through to get rid of algae etc etc . ..

Nothing really rising so worked the nymph in likely areas , had a nice little fish in one of the deep holes , about nine inches , lovely Arrow colours as always . . Quickly admired then released . .

Nice riffley stretch ahead so swapped to a parachute Adams , and had one small shot , about five inches in the faster broken water , again gorgeous colours , and released to get bigger !!!!!

Another forty yards or so up , had another small shot , ditto in size , again on the Parachute Adams , really scrappy little fish , and slipped back in . I continued prospecting with the Adams from then on , but no more takers , so had a wee chill out and enjoyed the scenery around here , superb !!!!!

Things seemed to slow down , and it was a while before I had any more takers , a nice fish about ten inches , three quarters of the way up the beat , in a deep pool , on the PTN , fought well above its weight , great stuff !!

Reaching the weir , not much water coming over the top , and I spooked a heron feeding !!! He seemed to have a job to take flight , as the wind had picked up by oneish . . . Was a fun four hours , four little Arrow beauties to the net , will be nice to see some more water to the river though , still that's all to come I guess , had a brief chat with the lady at the cottage where I parked under the yew tree , she assures me she'll give it a good trim , so that parking is made easier . . . .

Shall head too this charming beat next season , clocks ticking !!!!!! Roll on !!!!!!!

Extremely windy so ledgers corn, 4 carp approx 4-7lb. Very remote, scenic location just one dog walker in the distance. Hope to return to surface fish.

Water low and gin clear, the few fish were too easily spooked for my humble effort.
