4 plump brown trout, 8 to 12 inches. All to a #16 light olive dry. Lovely days fishing on a lovely stream. Quite challenging with the developing tree cover but all the better for that!

Wild streams day. An excellent day with great company. Finished the day with 5 wbt with many more missed chances! 2 biggest around 1/2 pound taken on size 12 klinkhammer and the rest taking a size 14 pheasant tail nymph. Thank you to all involved.

2 good sized trout first thing, but then conditions got a lot harder. Sun came out and water was super clear, and river very low and slow. Beautiful as always.

Absorbing fishing. The scudding wind that intensified all day made in tough at times but when it eased or you could find some shelter the trout were eager to rise. Rising hard in the morning to olive uprights and yellow may duns, in bursts in the afternoon to black gnats and then an impressive crescendo as the light faded and they mopped up spent gnats. Best fish was just under 2lbs, the average around 1lb and a couple of bigger fish were lost including a 3lb+ fish after it had jumped 2ft clear of the water. The biggest fish brought to hand was 3lb chub. 1 trout was retained

Several salmon showing in the pools and one was hooked for a couple of minutes before some wood intervened.

20 Trout, 1 Chub
