Tough day, river high but clear. Wading tricky. Both fish taken on PTN. Brief hatch and rise around 3pm. Cool later and killed off the day.

fished the upper section in Worm's Wood. Interesting section of river if a bit overgrown. Four small, out-of-season grayling. All caught deep on green shrimps and beaded, green squirmy nymphs. No sign of trout.

River very high for Trout ( Should have washed me off guys !!) Super tough and hard to fish when high, dangerous stretch at the best of times. 1 sympathetic trout landed .

Perfect morning started fishing at 08:30hrs river started to rise at 10:30hrs within an hour it was up 3’ and coloured.
Departed 11:30hrs the river was in full spate.

No fish seen or touched as we fished the beat from top to bottom. Felt that to a fall of 8" or so would help the fly fishing considerably but water clarity and colour was good.

Washed off river in full flood

Fished the Chapel catch for an hour. When I got there the river looked dirty and then got even dirtier
Saw a fish rise in the Pumphouse pool. Gave up in disgust No fish caught

Fished beat 2 from 13:00 - 15:00. Beautiful stretch of water and good casting practice.

NTR except accidental trout. Began with water in good condition but river came up into dirty flood as the day went on.
