No fish for me today, did manage to lose one though.
A sunny morning with a moderate down stream breeze made presentation difficult.
Plenty of fly hatch up to 1pm but not a single rise all day.
Weather got colder and the breeze much stronger in the afternoon, still some fly life.
I fished from the down stream boundary up to the end of the double bank fishing.
The only fish I saw was as I was walking back to the car, it just moved off station over some lighter bed rock then drifted back in.
The wading on this stretch varied with most of it being quite easy, the bed rock below the church is particularly slippery though. Wading staff highly recommended!

Fished 1600-1800 on a sunny and breezy afternoon. First hundred yards of the beat are quite tight and the casting beyond my abilities, leaving me frequently tangled up in branches. I spooked fish in all of the first 6 pools I came to but then the foliage opened up and allowed me to get a decent cast in. 6 wbt up to about 8" taken in the final hour on a small, dark emerger.
Didn't get much beyond the sewage plant before I had to leave but it was a very pleasant beat, it helps to be able to cast better than me though!
