Feedback & Reports

A sunny start didn’t help fortunately cloud cover turned up late morning and things improved a few mayflies and olives about but no hatch for the fish to respond to . Got a couple on streamers but most came to an 18 grey duster to fish rising at the tails of pools.

Caught 2 rainbows on the fly. Both on a small black & green lure. Tried nymphs & dry fly no joy.

Great day fishing on a lovely beat with very good access. Short hatch in the afternoon which got the fish rising after a morning of nymph fishing.

Had to work hard for my fish, despite apparently good water conditions and rising temperatures. Using nymphs (except for an interlude trying to tempt 2 or 3 rising fish with a dry fly around lunchtime) I caught one early on. Then nothing until I hooked a much bigger one about 3.30pm, which after 3 or 4 minutes of lively fight dived behind a rock just upstream of me, and shed the hook.

Tough day. No fish rising. Concentrated on faster water flows with weighted nymphs. One 16 inch fish to the net. Two others lost.
