Cool, wet and breezy. No fish showing but one take in the Dog Hole that sadly didn't stick. A couple of shad and one other tug in the Windmill.

Spotty day like the weather. Little activity until mid afternoon when there was a patch of about an hour when there were a number of fish feeding then nothing much for the remainder of the day.
Probably outmaneuvered by the fish but tried different water heights and types of flies during the course of the morning to no avail. Ultimately caught three fish and lost around four. The fish were taken on a klinkhammer and a wooly nymph. The largest was a pound and a half, the others half that size.
Really enjoyed the beat despite the inclement weather and will definitely return.

2lb Chub taken whilst salmon fishing using fly. River falling slightly though windy and overcast conditions made the day quite miserable. Clearest water this week.

We were 3 people fishing Wyebank/Courtfield on May 8th. We were well greeted and the various pools etc were explained to us by Don. We had one small pike around 4lbs and a small sea trout. No sign of any salmon all day. Saying that we had a great day out.

3 nice trout, 10" to 12" long. The day was cool and showery with a strong wind blowing downstream from about 2pm onwards. The fish were caught during the sunny spells before then. There were quite a few olives hatching with the odd yellow mayfly making a showing.
An enjoyable few hours fishing.
