Feedback & Reports

Cold and very clear, no fly on the water and no fish showing. Was not expecting it to be at all productive but a pleasant couple of hours.

4 trout. Fished from 8.00 pm to 9.30pm. A quick move here from the Senni paid off. Flow very low, plenty of refusals and boils under dry adams in still pools. Best fish 14 inch rest 7 - 9 inch. Lots of tiny salmon parr about trying to drown the fly!

Most fish between 8" and 10" although a couple smaller and a couple larger at around 12", all to Adams. The river was very low and very clear so the going was quite tough in the morning. The fishing definitely improved in the second half of the beat where there were deeper pools with faster flows. It also wamed up in the afternoon and the wind dropped, so the weather helped.

Beautiful day - sunny and 14C with (unusually) no wind.
The bottom of the beat is mostly shallow water and I've never seen much moving there. Further up, there are deeper pools and these are well worth the effort. Easy wading.
Three pretty brown trout (2 x 7" and 1 x 5") brought to hand and released and three times as many takes missed. Hooked what felt like a substantially bigger fish but it broke my 6X tippet on its first run. All fish came to a Para Adams.

Water extremely low. Caught 3 nice trout and lost a leviathan for a stream like this (c. 2lb). Attractive stream.

No catches to report. Very tough fishing. A nice day nonetheless.

Dry fly, water level lowish. I was a little unsure about access to the beat from the bridge. Challenging but enjoyable. I would not say that wading was easy, 3/4 on a scale of 1-5.

Nice place, only saw one fish rising but water very clear and fish easily spooked.

All on nymphs, all returned.

Quite windy and not warm. Nothing showing while I fished it (10:30am to 2:00pm).
