Caught on a mix of methods. Worm, pop up worm on float and spinning. Weather was fantastic looking forward to another session over Easter break. Big shout out to the staff who had to deal with broken payment machine and did deal with all anglers who couldn't pay at machine well done lads.

Bottom worm.

Session cut short due to family emergency, 3 bites on my bottom fished work, three worms pinched, no fish caught, probably perch! Nothing on my spinner. Lovely calm morning but got chilly once the wind got up. Nice to see clean banks with little litter around, the cynic in me thinks that will soon change.

Bright and breezy day and water cold and clear. We managed 8 very healthy but lean trout, all taken on small nymph patterns and all safely returned.

Fishing was slow. One barbel early morning, the rest were caught as the light faded. Feeder fished pellet caught the barbel and chub. Sea trout caught on feeder fished maggots.

Arrived at the river 8:00am. It was running about 3 to 4 foot over with a bit of colour but it looked good and we anticipated a productive day. We never even had a single bite all day. We tried various swims along the stretch but to no avail.....so at 4:00pm we decided to call it quits. It looks an interesting piece of river and I would like to try it again in the summer but today we were badly beaten.......nothing to report!!!

The river had dropped further overnight and looked really inviting, had a chub first cast and a grayling a bit later and that was it. The weather was so nice and the beat so peaceful we got a bit lazy and didn't move around, enjoyed the day though.

1 Grayling, 1 Chub

Nice height and a very warm day for mid March. Sunny all day so probably not the best conditions. Fished the fly through the upper pools but nothing doing. Moved down to bottom end and fished through with flying c but still nothing doing.

My first time on the beat no takes only used the fly rod only fished the middle of the beat
