A disappointing day considering the conditions, but having said that, the top of the river rose during the morning, could this have put the fish off?
However I did have an interesting experience at the top Rock. My line was swinging round nicely as a swan decided to swim over it. The line went tight, the swan jumped and I cursed and wondered how I was going to unhook a swan! The swan then went downstream but the line went upstream. Reality then dawned....
It was not a happy ending because the hook popped out with the fish beaten at my feet. Such is fishing.
I too met a very nice gentleman in the morning!

Manufactured 35 mins on way back from work. With river at 2ft 6" I dipped into the bridge pool. 4th cast right in the neck line pulled away and a bright silver 12lb cock fish was the result. Now had 25mins so moved down rapidly towards the rocks. On the way had a slam take mid river and very strong fish roared around pool, twice having 100 yards of line out. Thought I was into a Wye special and phoned for assistance. Shortly after assistance arrived fish showed for first time and it was only a colouring hen of around 17lb. Landed it just in time to rush back to car and get back in time to pick up kids from creche.

Stephen Jaques caught his first Salmon! A lovely fish of around 10lbs - it took a spinner and was returned very carefully. Otherwise just shad and the odd trout to report. A wet day by the end!
