1 wbt, good hatch and lots of fish rising

15lbs Salmon caught on Mepps spinner and returned safely. This is a lovely place to fish for salmon with well kept pathways and access points.

Had an hour well spent at the river. There was quite a bit of colour in the river. Fished the duo method with a size 18 klink with a size 14 goldhead PTN. Landed 3 lovely grayling up to 3/4lb and a trout of about 10". Maps were easy to use, access was great. A lovely beat, I will be visiting again!

great afternoons fishing with plenty of fish active. managed to hook 7 fish including two in excess of 12". I also had a number of other takes.

7 Trout

An enjoyable beat to fish. I had no takes and therefore no fish either but this is likely my inexperience at river fishing. I tried numerous winged flies and nymphs but without success.
In the up stream slow river areas there were good fishing taking on the surface.
It is slightly difficult to access the river but there are enough entry points and I walked a fair way once into the water. I would fish this beat again

No rain and no salmons, so trout fishing in the afternoon. Lots of small trout and grayling on wets and drys, great fun.

Great day on the creel, found the fish from the first cast and caught throughout the day literally every cast. No chub smaller the 2.5lb and the barbel were all between 6-8lb. Pellet feeder and pellet hookbaits responsible for all the fish.

8 Barbel, 32 Chub

Well a good day was had by DH and myself, the former catching a record 35 fish, mostly trout to 1 1/2lb. I caught my second Wye salmon of the week! This was a 12lb hen fish. She was a little thin and with some colour. She need some oxygenation before swimming off.

The split second she took my fly I slipped and fell in! Just what you want.... When trying to put her back in the water, I had become entangled with my line and it tripped me up, and I fell in again, this time whilst holding a salmon!! Only after when I went to retrieve my rod did I notice that the tripping incident had snapped my rod in two sections..... s**t...
