Bright all day. Caught two 12’ brown trout, and missed many more, including two that I had hooked thade made a long distance release.

The river was a little higher and carrying more colour than I was expecting. I'm not sure how much difference this made, but there were only sporadic rises during the day. There were a few mayfly coming off but they didn't seem to be in sufficient numbers to get the fish really interested. I caught nothing all morning. Things picked up a little in the second half of the day and I finished with four out of season grayling and three trout, the best around 12 ounces. Two of the fish were feeding in a back-eddy on the far side of a bend: the fly does not drift naturally for long in those circumstances so it needed some accurate casting which helped me to feel I hadn't had too bad a day after all!
