2 x trout 10-11 inches, Tungsten Hare's Ear nymph. A long walk on a cold day; trout hard on the bottom.

Really enjoyed this trip. First proper river for me so steep learning curve but water was at what looked like its normal level. No movement on the surface so just used PTN through the riffles. Both fish caught at the end of a pass on the uplift. Only about 7 inches and very silver after the floods. Would recommend chest waders to really take advantage of the water. Very happy with the foundations services. Website is excellent and very easy to use. Webcams are a great idea to. Highly recommend an ale in the Bell Inn after fishing! Can`t wait to go back in the spring.

3 anglers using worm on bottom and float but no fish, didn't see a fish rise all day.

No fish caught or seen. 1'10" on the gauge. Very cold, windy and squally.

With snow on the mountain tops as I drove up here and a strong downstream wind, this was always going to be a difficult day for flyfishing. I gave up trying conventional methods and resorted to wading to mid river and lobbing a shortline upstream in front of me czech nymph style. Eventually persistance paid off and I landed two small trout (1/2lb ish) with one other that came off. Later in the day an out of season Grayling of about a pound rounded off the session. All fish took a weighted GRHE.

Fished a few hours on Sunday afternoon in a cool downstream wind. A few olives hatching but no fish rising. 5 x wild browns, all decent sized at around 10-13 inches on a weighted nymph. Some of the fish were quite lean but still fought well.
