Feedback & Reports

Nothing caught with salmon flies or spinner and one or two missed takes with trout rod.

River was in flood, very high and very fast. The small island which can be used as a platform to cast to the corner pool was submerged and inaccessible.
Fishing from the banks very difficult at the top of the beat thanks to the height of banks behind.
We found a couple of places where we could side cast out though and gave it a good go, and trout were rising in the afternoon but not for whatever we tried them with in the fast flowing water. I think a mix of the pace of the river and us not choosing the right flies to cast in those conditions combined to leave us blank (not so much as a tickle!) but we had a lovely day regardless. Beautiful spot too.

nothing seen or caught

no luck today. River looked good though

4 small trout all returned. 2 on PT nymph, 2 on DH emerger. Very nice run but spoiled by lots of barbed wire to negotiate and no styles.

Good day but had to work hard for bites in the blazing sun (it was supposed to be cloudy). A change of pegs around midday helped. Barbel from 1lb to 8lb. Chub 1lb to 4lb. Some steep banks.... take care!
