Mick put me on the fish again but no takes. Five salmon showed in the beat. Lots of work done on steps and path ways.

Cold, windy and bright. River gin clear and quite low. No fly, no rises and no fish.

Cold, windy and sometimes wet day Did not see any fish. Back to winter?

On parking the temperature was down at about 10deg and there was a cold wind off the Eppynt. So, as I walked to the beat start I was wondering if I was a little early for this small stream. It was a surprise therefore to find rising fish in the first pool of the beat and after a very cautious approach I managed to tempt a notably silver 10" WBT to a winged blue dun. After this pool there were no more rising fish and neither could I tempt any up. In fact I saw no further fish.
I took a couple of hours to get to the fishing hut and walked off the beat from there and back to the car via the lanes. I counted five drowned lambs in the the stream which was a bit gruesome. I have never seen this before and wonder if the fencing needs a review?
