Feedback & Reports

Fished 1130-1730 in good conditions, cloud, occasional light drizzle and mostly a decent SW wind. So seven trout was disappointing. Fish 10-15", all bar one were carrying fish lice, Argulus, some with large numbers. This explains why trout were seen jumping. Argulus also seen on sticklebacks in the margins which probably explains why there are so many on the trout. Very little rising. Resident tern thought about taking my fly.

Fished in the evening, very windy with big wave, didn't move anything until after 9.00 and then caught two trout. Used tradirional wet flies.

Conditions not as good as forecast. Wind dropped late morning and sun came out. Hard work. Fish caught all over, most ~12", one decent @17". had a few fall off as well. Didn't stay for the evening - no stamina.

Late evening dry fly fishing. Lots of fish jumping but no joy for the fisherman today.

Unfortunately nothing caught or seen. water level has dropped significantly in the last few weeks & there was a lot of disturbance by visitors eg. stone throwing & dogs, this will increase next week during half term.
