Got up at 4am anticipating another scorchio. Fishing by 5.45am. Gave Rock and Upper Rock a good going over with the double hander. No fish seen, then one 18-20 pounder showed a couple of times under the trees between Chine and Woodstream. Tried in the shade with a shrimp [impossible to reach with a fly] but no interest shown. Gave up at 2pm with temperature rocketing. Last seen falling asleep on a lounger at 5pm with beer in hand. Till another dawn!

None caught, excellent beat and booking service.

2 trout caught using worm as bait.

4 trout caught using worm as bait.

Fished thrugh the afternoon.
A number of small trout rising, but nil return. Trout easy to spook and sometimes difficult to cast to.

A 9lb salmon taken on fly from the Cafn at 7.45pm.
This morning a pull from another fish at 6.45am.

2 small wild brown trout both under 6 inches long to a weighted ptn. River was clear and in good condition. There is a dead sheep in the water at the start of the beat. Very few rising fish and only a minimum of insect life. Superb setting for an afternoon and evening of fishing and watching the buzzerds and dippers. There is a red kite but I didn't see it.
