5 x trout 6-11 inches, Goldbead Hare's Ear. Still pretty high and turbulent, but a few pools were viable.

DNF wash off. Probably going to get through April not fishing at this rate. Will it ever end ?

golf course and broken bridge beats. River coloured and too high., although some flies hatching in sun.

The salmon was a parr, carefully returned to the water!

Probably too much water, but very enjoyable despite only having one take (which I lost)! - took a Greenwells spider having tried various nymphs and dry flies.

A first visit to this beat for my son and myself - really enjoyed ourselves but could see that summer water levels would make life pretty challenging. One trout only which took a Greenwells Glory having tried a selection of nymphs

Despite the heavy rain of Saturday, river was clear, but it was running fast. Nymphing all the morning, no fish caught. Good hatch from 1,30 till 3pm, and managed to land 4 decent graylings with a dry fly. Once the hatch is finished, fishes stop raising too.

Fished the afternoon, 6 x trout up to 9 ins, all caught on bead head nymphs.

Good day on a glorious stretch of river although the fishing was slow. Plenty of flies coming off the water but no fish rising until around 4pm, all fish caught on a klinkhamer. Maybe it was a result of the river carrying a little water from Saturdays rain.

A tough but enjoyable day. The only hatch in evidence was midge and around 5 of the fish took emerging midge patterns. All others were caught on various traditional wets.
