Could'nt think of a better way to spend Easter Sunday. Fished the evening rise. River fairly active in the afternoon sun. missed a fair few decent fish but managed to get one in the net by sunset...

very quiet. very few fish rising.

Second visit to this beat and always an interesting water. Firstly came across a recently dead young sheep on the bankside. Informed a nearby house and later in the day, it was recovered. Weather was far better then the Saturday with a light wind and clear blue sky. Plenty of water to play with and Armies Pool had a lot to offer. Again soft hackle MB nymph took to the
interest of the Trout. Lost two good fish but after letting pool rest came back and picked up two to the net. A very small Salmon Parr took a spider pattern on the dropper. Water very clear but with some colour. A lot of deeper water at Gravelly Pool and care is needed, as I did take a small fall but only a wet arm.

Feels like winter this high up the river. Chilly start but warmed up. Dries and nymphs.

A lovely session with some great water to go at. The trout were playing hard to get but some lovely oos grayling were caught, we couldn't seem to get away from them! We were on holiday in the cottages by the river and would love to revisit for the grayling come winter time. We caught fish to nymph, dry dropper and dry fly when a hatch of March browns took off around lunch time. A very fun morning's fishing! Tricky, slippery bottom to wade on though, definitely bring a wading staff and studs if you want to fish from the water!
