Nice beat with easy reach of The Crown. Water was very low and clear with no fishing showing but managed to take 1 x 12" and 1 x 10" brown on a size 14 LDO. Also had a few on upstream PTN nymph.

Delightful stretch of water, though access a little dificult with waders. Weather was good but water seemed a little murky. Didnt see any sign of rising fish, managed to loose 3 in some of the deeper pools. Great fun.

3 fish to the net in total. Lost a few others and seen a good few more. Water was low and clear and hardly any bugs coming off yet. Still a beautiful day on the river.

Minus 0.5 C on the car temperature guage as we drove past Lucton School at 07:00 hrs. A postively balmy + 2.5 C when we parked at Sned Wood 10 minutes later but, Jeez, it was cold in the river (especially when venturing past the Plimsoll Line).

The cold - together with the bright sun and the clear river - may go someway to explaining the relative paucity of fish. I finished up with 4 Grayling - including a very nice fish of around 1.5lbs - and 3 Trout. All on nymphs. Sporadic dry hatch in the afternoon - but I only saw one fish rise all day. Tom (who suffered a holed wader)will file his own report!

Catch = zero.

Very little sign of life in the water, but river was pretty low.

Beautiful day for walking & wading the river, if not fishing. A few small insect rises in the realy afternoon, but no fish following them.

Still beats a day in the office!

Despite the sunshine, the water was quite cold and there was only a very short rise about 3 pm for less than half an hour. 0 fish were caught. A beautiful beat but wading would be extremely challenging in high or coloured water

Prolific Grannom Hatch. 27 x Brown Trout to 13", 2 x Grayling.

Warm clear day after a very cold night. Set up around 11am with good hatch of LDO & Grannom, both of which continued through to 5pm. Caught 1 to the net, a very healthy 1 1/4 lbs, returned. Missed loads including hooking and losing 2 very sizeable specimens. Fished the duo upstream most of the day. Fish were taking the surface fly and the nymph. Fantastic day!!

A very intersting short stretch of water. 3 Brown Trout caught and released during a short 2 hour visit. Largest fish close to 2lbs.

3 small trout to about 8" and 2 grayling to about 1.5 lb., all caught on GHHE. No fish taken. Great day but unusally no fish seen other that those caught?!
