Feedback & Reports

A poor return by the angler considering there were numerous takes in the faster water upstream of Trerickett Bridge. Teams of red and olive nymphs attracted the trout and a few small grayling, seen briefly on the surface before they unhooked themselves! Not much depth to the water yet but it was noticeably cooler - which probably triggered the feeding after many weeks of hot and dry weather-affected fishing.
