Feedback & Reports

A bit of overnight rain tempted me for a last Grayling session . The river was up just a little but had a slight tinge which gave hope . 4 hours later 31 Grayling had graced the net trotting red and bronze maggots

3 Trout, 31 Grayling

Difficult fishing conditions ( sunshine gusty wind low and gin clear river)in the morning gave way to overcast skies later on as well as the wind speed reducing . By fishing as light as I dare in the way of hook link diameter the fish responded by coming on to feed for the last few hours . all fish on maggot feeder. In the end a good days fishing.

Access to swim much better thanks. River moderate level and fast flowing so difficult to keep clear of floating branches and shaggy bottom. Fished all day and missed one run until last knocking saw a 3lb Chubb in the net.

Saw a salmon leap over the ‘wire’.

1 Chub

North Country Spiders worked well today on a lowish river.

Fished downstream of bridge at low force to bridge at Newbiggin. Low water meant easy access to lots of interesting pools.

2 bites and 1 barbel of 6lb landed. Fished lucky stoned and first field after the woods with no joy, fished 2 other swims by the hut and had the bites. The first bite snagged up and unfortunately snapped the line. Great day out on a gorgeous and quiet beat.
