Trout rising on Mowley Wood in morning but heavy rain & cold stopped any activity. Water a little high & coloured but otherwise very good

A very enjoyable 3 hrs early morning, had to walk a bit to get away from the trees, I got as far as the reservoir pipes before I gave up, sadly no fish seen or caught.

Just a very quick mooch , dinner time before doing the mowing . . . Another warm day , so was a bit optimistic tying on a small Parachute Adams . . .

Worked the usual beats of the Pinsley , only for couple of hours , and targeted the usual haunts that are workable , just about , with some catapult casting and working my way upstream on my knees , good job I've been using plactic reinforced knee pads that are supposed to be used for skate boarding I think !!!! Does the job perfectly !!!

Anyway , just the one small fish , about nine inches , superb splashy rise , nailed it , lovely colours as always , slipped back into the clear water , good fun , again I'm sure there will be some activity tonight , about eightish . . . May even be tempted to head down again later , choice choices , tough call hey ; between Emmerdale and catching wild brownies on the dry !!!!!!! An obvious winner id say ha ha , back very soon , sorted !!!!!

Despite low water, managed a number of trout to about 3/4 lb while salmon fishing, but lost a much larger fish mid afternoon. All taken [and lost] on a single, barbless hook, size 4 gold mepps.

A warm and mostly overcast day that promised much but the hatch and rise never materialised. Best fish were caught in the tail of the wonderfully named sewage pool.

Very little moving. Crossed the river at the bottom of the beat to fish the lower pools but nothing to be seen. A couple of fish to the dry and nymph. Tough day!
