Great to be by the river for a day and a bit either side. Weather? Perfect! River? Low and clear! Two sightings of salmon; one by The Rock and one below The Cables. Trout rising all day. Catching them however, was very difficult. For someone looking from The Bridge, it must have appeared that I was herding trout upstream with a Kites Imperial, fished Rawhide style. After some tuition my co-fisher caught his first trout with a fly. He also caught and released a good trout whilst spinning for salmon, way below the bridge. We saw Kingfishers, Dippers, 3 Cormorants on the water and 13 flying overhead in a V formation(???).
Met with friends whom I only speak to on the phone normally. Banter, teas, coffees, beer by the river and all day breakfasts, more please!

No fish despite fishing for close to 10 hours each rod.

Plenty of fish rising all day particularly at the start of the beat. Beautiful day for it to boot.

Low river, lot of fly activity, felt I should have done better. Fish returned.

Warm, sunny, river very low. Fished for an hour then changed beats. Lovely little stream, could do with a stile or two over barbed wire fencing, especially at first large scour pool.
