Feedback & Reports

Had a v brief pull after first cast of the day. Nothing then in Gravel Catch, Bridge Pool and Island stream. Enjoyed the last day anyway and, as a rookie, was able to see small improvements in casting the salmon rod. Joe Cobley’s “more power” advice just beginning to bear fruit!
Thanks to Louis for his tips on fishing Gravel catch.

Fished the field section, neither of us had a bite all day long. River was high and coloured.

Dry flies and bugging

3 Trout, 2 Grayling

Had a couple of pulls but that was it! Found it hard to access some of the pools due to steep banks, more suitable for spinner than the fly
