25 Trout, 4 Grayling

River was coloured after the week of rainfall we've had, and looked around 1 to 2 feet higher than normal conditions. 2 trout were caught out of the lower riffle/rock section just below the church both fish were caught using Czech nymphing duo style largest of the two approx 10-12 inch. Another fish was lost at the net just above the mentioned section in the slower slack water this was caught on an olive klinkhammer. And many other fish were seen rising here but inaccessible due to the difficult wading.
3 fish were caught approx 1/4 mile above the measuring station just above the rocky rapids area where the water is slack. All 3 fish were caught casting to rising fish but all caught on spiders fished on duo setup. Largest fish weighed 2 lb 13oz (brown trout). Many other fish were lost further up the river in the section of rocks with the grass sections in the river. Very difficult wading in places and a wading staff would be advisable, lot of areas require a bit of scrambling to get down to them but definitely worth the effort.
Will definitely return in better conditions

One 6" trout. Late afternoon. Dry fly. Otherwise no fish about to speak of. Disappointing.

A bit early in the season. There was little sigh of life with the briefest of hatches around 1 pm. The river was up a touch and the water very cold. Did move a couple of fish swinging a March Brown.

Beautiful day but the waters still a bit cold. I saw no rises all day and only two upwings. I couldn't tempt a fish with a heavy nymph or a dry fly.

River slightly coloured and was rising slightly during the day. Lots of olives on the water most of the day, did not see any fish rise for them. I did not catch anything tried all sorts of nymph methods, it was my first time on this river. I would like to come back later in the year.
First class service from W & U foundation, first time I have used them.
