Feedback & Reports

Beautiful river but weather a bit too beautiful for fishing, sunny cloudless and hot. Wide river presumably almost on summer levels but still had very deep pools and good flow in glides and riffles. Good varied features to explore. Sporadic patches of small-ish rising fish that would take surface flies and enjoyed a baby sunfly. Only saw larger trout rising in deep water in evening when I had to leave. Good shady spots to rest and observe. Sandmartins in profusion flying low over water presumably taking midges. Very peaceful. Easy wading and casting. I would love to return in cooler times. Thank you

I began fishing at around 11 o'clock. The water was very low and I was often fishing in just 6 inches of water. I caught fish in tiny little pockets of water as well as some of the bigger pools; the riffle i caught the first fish in was only about 20cm deep. All of the fish were caught on dry flies and I predominantly used a size 16 stimulator dry fly. if you fish this beat i would recomend using very fine tippet and casting into every tiny little bit of pocket water as well as the pools.

Fished in the early evening, mainly exploring the top of the beat up to the falls. Few fish rising: two 8" trout to a grey wulff.

Gorgeous day with very little wind and plenty of sun. Fishing was consistant all day and was lucky to pick up a 3lb sea trout on a little nymph.

All fish returned.
