Fished both dries and nymphs to no effect in the coloured water. Packed up at 4 p.m. as the rain returned.

Finally got on here. 18 barbel to 3 of us, all on pellet but rather uneven (14/3/1). It did include 8lb 12oz & 9lb 6oz fish. Lovely stretch but a lot of water to review on a 1st visit

Fished from 4pm til dusk. Weather very much against again - windy and rain later on. Beautiful stretch of river and delightful landowner/resident. Oh, and yet another field of young bullocks! River was low and fishing slow but 2 WBT at 6-8 inches and a decent 9" grayling all on a nymph - all returned. Oh how I wish I lived nearer!

Nil. Lots of takes but nothing would stick. Various sizes and patterns of fly used. Still very enjoyable.

Did not fish for salmon, tried dry fly for trout and some caught to 10". Lovely stretch of river but few rising fish before rain came in.

Started fishing after lunch and had about 10 trout between 7 and 9 inch during the afternoon. Then the rain moved in and the trout stopped feeding.
Caught most trout on a small nymphs. Only few trout were raising to the dry fly.

Had a go at this stretch on the Monday. Water was up slighty with a nice bit a colour. Lost a few and landed a couple of small ones in the lower end then switched to the upper. Saw many rises in the flats but were very difficult to catch. Moved into the faster stretches and that brought 6 fish to the net. Hatches were sparse due to the rain that moved in the afternoon but some sedges and olives were coming off. Most fish just happy enough sipping away though some jumpers as well. Fish taken on #14 para adams mostly and a couple on a Tups.

Water 0.6m and coloured but fining down. Fished for Salmon at all the regular spots but did not catch. Very sparse trout rise probably due to the colour. Fished until the heavens opened at around 15.30. Decided to pack in as water would colour up again quickly with this persistent rain.

Fished for 2 days up till 8pm, 5 barbel up to 8lb 6oz plus a few chub thrown in for good measure. I will definately be back for more of this...nice peaceful surroundings and secure parking.

15+ WBT to 8". Dry fly adams 4.30am to 10pm. 1 Fly all afternoon! Loads of flylife.
