Feedback & Reports

Lovely day on the river, but water a bit low. The egret is still around - spotted above the bridge. Lots of birds including Kingfisher and Ravens, but no fish caught. Managed several rises to various flies but no takes. I suspect the rising fish were mainly small and not trout.

River slightly ip 8 inches. Fine sunny day, all trout caught on dry flies. No fish taken.

River level dropping and getting clearer.
No fish showing all day. Fished the duo with a gold head nymph taking the fish.

Dry fly good river conditions and weather five fish up to a pound and one at a pound and a half.

Only really fishable pool was at the junction with the Escley - water level so low and even here there was no flow. No surface activity and only a couple of very sluggish follows to a goldhead nymph. Looked a very different river to my visit in early June.
Still an enjoyable day with Kingfisher(s) and Dipper(s) put in several appearances.

6 x grayling 13-16 inches, 3 x trout 6-11 inches, all on dry Red Tag. Funny sort of a day with Irfon dropping after a couple of recent floods, strong downstream wind, sunshine and showers alternating. A few nice grayling, but absolutely no natural rises, so fishing the water.

Fished for 2 hours this morning. The fish were still asleep so nothing caught
