Very sunny day and hatches were sporadic as were moving fish. Connected briefly with three good trout on top of the four to ten inches that came to hand. All on small Parachute Adams. The river really had the feeling of a heatwave about to set in and there was lethargy instead of a solid evening rise.

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!
