A warm day with cloud early on, little wind if any. Later on in the afternoon the sun came out and there was a light downstream wind.
I really had to try hard to get these fish despite there being a huge hatch of upwings (sorry I still can't tell the species apart).
I caught the first fish on a heavy nymph which was easily the biggest grayling I've ever caught at about 14 inches on a heavy nymph.
After that I tried various weighted nymphs but it wasn't until I was at the top of the beat that I tried a dry fly, I then caught four fish in quick succession and lost one other that dwarfed the first fish (I knew I was going to lose it after accidentally hooking it as I lifted my fly for the next cast).
Why I didn't try a dry, emerger pattern or even an unweighted nymph before this I have no idea, but as this is only my second fly season we'll put it down to experience.
Overall a lovely day on one of my favourite beats, thanks again WUF.

Bright sunlight with water low and clear made fishing difficult. Thought I had hooked the mother of all trout as it tore off line and ran downstream. Turned out to be a 12 inch brownie foul hooked in the dorsal fin. Oh well. Apart from that and a couple of parr, nothing caught. A beautiful stretch though, so will return when there is more water.

We all caught barbel on legered pellet in the fast water throughout the day despite the sunshine and absolutely hordes of canoeists (the most I've ever seen on the river, but it was a summer Sunday, so can't complain - and some of them even provided some entertaining moments). Fish were caught up to 5lb, with all the largest ones caught later in the day when the canoe traffic had died down. Only one chub, and no fish seemed interested in meat, which was tried occasionally as a change bait.

River level very low with little oxygen. It was always going to be a struggle on a very hot and sunny day.
3 Barbel, 2 Chub
