The river was very high after lot of rain the previous days, still a great day and it beats working.

River very high and running very fast meant we were mostly fishing in margins. 2 nice barbel came out in the morning (from the lower field just before the houses) to 8mm goo boilie. One of 8.5lb and the other 7.5lb. Cows were a nuisance at times but beat in good nick other than that with easy access and good parking nearby.

Otter active in lower portion of the beat

River level had not dropped as much as I thought it would so it was unfishable by bank or wading.

1 lost [ see other report]

14lb Cock on fly Grange Pool plus two lost by Nigel Smith from Sporeadeagle

Cold day, but river in great condition most fish taken using heavy nymphs and for the last hour or so on dry fly. Great day.

I was fishing from 1PM till 7PM. Level of water normal or slightly high. It took me a couple of hours to find the best lure for that day or maybe fish started feeding better towards the evening? :) I landed several decent fish. Method spin. Overall very successful day.

Barbel in the late moring and chub in the afternoon and evening. All decent fish. River was higher than I was expecting and swims I've fished before were not accessible. Definite autumnal feel to the day.
