Feedback & Reports

Part of the enjoyment for me is seeing rivers throughout the seasons. Sometimes the fish are easier than others. Today was at the harder end of the spectrum. The two of us fished methodically mainly with short-line nymph tactics. We had a few bites just after first light with one landed and one lost but then nothing until last light when we had four as it was getting dark.
Worth knowing that the parking area is pretty muddy so a bit of planning needed when tackling up.

River at a nice level - 2 grayling around around a pound each - trotting

Weather very good, mild and dry. Small barbel 2lb, All chub between 2 1/2 and 4 lb, the grayling a bonus. Thought the barbel would show in the conditions but not at all. Fished first 2 pegs in the right hand field, most the pegs were treacherous as very slippery, Many of the banks had collapsed as a result of the high waters over the last weeks.
Great beat and be back in the spring/ summer

River and conditions appeared perfect. Fished halfway down Legg Meadow, using pellet, pellet and paste combination with feeder. Unfortunately, had only one bite which I missed!

First time on this beat. More walking than fishing, scouting as much as possible on a short winters day. Fish caught on Czech nymphs, oos trout and largest grayling 12”.

1 Trout, 4 Grayling

Just a couple of hours on the river today. 0.58m on the Cilmery gauge, a bit windy, drizzle & 10 degrees C. All fish caught on a tungsten bead, present tail on a long leader. Wasn't too wet when i arrived so i parked by the church, by the time i had finished fishing the field was saturated and very slippy so definitely head the parking instructions regarding this.
