Failed to catch today although river looked much better than yesterday. Tried a variety of Nymphs and various techniques,
felt I fished better than yesterday.

River pushing through still but slacks nice colour and with a lovely mild day no excuses to blank but a nice day all the same

we started fishing around 10 after meeting at Greg's we fished the lower beat first the levels was up with a bit of colour in the water we all got in to fish straight away all our fish came from the lower end. we stopped at 1 for a coffee and had a warm in the hut. we did fish up to craiglyn falls where I had a grayling which gave me the run around in the pushing water, we called it a day at 3.30 as the rain started great day out thanks shaun

Better conditions for the angler today but the water was fairly coloured. The best grayling went just over 1lb 8oz but once again trout were present in every swim and were unavoidable. Fished the lower end of the stretch from Grandslam down, every swim tried produced.

Miserable conditions with freezing rain and 40 mph gusts fairly constant. Far from ideal for trotting and most wouldn't of got out the car but we were rewarded with fairly constant sport. Brownies beat the grayling to the bait in virtually every swim we tried and at times it was a fish a chuck. Trout caught was an estimate, likely more.

A lovely day for a walk with a rod. The grayling were no doubt shoaled up in the bottoms of pools. I didn't disturb them.

6 x grayling 6-17 inches, 1 x out of season trout 16 inches, trotting. Hard work to find fish this morning in what was very raw weather - just above freezing and with a bitterly cold wind. The river was clearing, but still rather high. However, there was the odd individual grayling to be found here and there and a couple of them were good ones. The post-spawning trout attacked double maggot while it was being wound back upstream.
