Was an enjoyable day even though conditions was rough with a very strong wind too strong for fly fishing so we used worming techniques landed two rainbows both was under 2lb also caught six perch of about a lb weight

2 Trout, 6 Other

There was a rise just after mid-day of LDO's, MB's and I what I think were stonefly. I caught one 16" trout on an adams and one 11" on a small PTN. The rain come intermittently from 2/3, after that the rises stopped and I couldn't tempt anything else.

0.21m on the gauge and running at a steady pace. Coldish Easterly wind not best for this beat. Good hatch of LDO at about 3.30pm, however, not a riser to be seen. Only caught in deeper water, the trout on a PTN and the rather small grayling on an olive Klink, that came up out of pity ! Good to meet up with S.C. yesterday who is a regular here, while I was out walking, and have a natter about fishing in general.

14 x trout 10-15 inches, Waterhen Bloa, Dark Moorgame, Woodcock and Hare's Lug, Grannom spider, Olive Jingler. The river was in fine condition as the level came down, but this trip was actually very hard work. A cold night was followed by a day of low cloud cover and a very chilly east wind. And I suppose nobody told the trout that the clocks had changed. So I waited and waited, fishing spiders for the odd fish until, quite late in the day, a hatch of large dark olives began and I was able to make up the rest of the bag with a dry fly on the surface. I have it on (several) good authorities that a couple of days ago, when it was warmer, a large hatch of grannom appeared in this part of the river.

A couple of hours at the bottom of the beat. Briefly hooked two, and then lost them.

Nothing caught but very enjoyable day on lovely beat. Hatch of large dark olives and March Browns mid afternoon.

Cloudy cold day with a slight breeze. Water clarity was excellent with a strong flow. 3 WBT on deep fished nymphs in fast water and 3 on small dries in a sparse hatch.

Excellent conditions, high water level. 4 fat rainbows around 2 lbs each caught on spinner. Great day of fishing.
