Water too high and coloured to make wading safe

Great beat, caught one and had three takes which managed to wriggle off my barbless fly.

not much happening at surface so opted to nymph. wind was very strong and played havoc with tip of fly line. so with utter disgust stuck on a bite indicator. this helped no end keeping the flies moving through the feeding lanes. water up a little and slightly coloured all trout between 7-16 inches and the grayling between 6-14 inches. all taking size 16 3mm tungsten bead baetis nymph. nice few hours on the lugg

River is still slightly coloured. The extra water improved the fishing with most trout taking the nymph. Nice fish up to 13" caught. Only fished the first few pools from the bridge upwards over lunch time.

The real purpose of the day was to practice casting. Had a very enjoyable morning, much improving techniques. Had a good afternoon with a switch rod, catching lovely couple of brownies to finish the day. Rained from lunchtime onwards, water was high and not helped by very persistent rain for much of the afternoon. thoroughly enjoyable day,
