The what three words location was spot on. Good job because the corrugated shed is overgrown and virtually invisible as a waypoint. Lovely stretch of water/countryside and the easiest access of several beats I have fished recently.
Olive HEN for 2 beautiful, small brownies and a decent Grayling. One to return to I think.

River was low in many places but there are still some good pools further down this beat. Not many fish showing and my only take was on a small black gold head. Lovely stretch

Two browns taken on nymphs. Apparently didn’t have the dry’s they wanted.

All fish taken on Black ptn under klinkhammer. Water a little low and very clear, so many fish spooked first cast. Lovely beat, access a little tricky in a couple of spots, steep banks and some undergrowth, but nothing insurmountable, all in all a pleasant evening session.

Following the rain three days ago the river had dropped to 9” on the Ddoll Farm gauge and the water was clear and 11 - 12 degrees. The day was pretty calm with little breeze and some sunshine but also very few bugs: some midge, a few sedge, hardly any upwings and very few rising fish. Bugged early on and had a few grayling but then had all other fish, mainly non-risers, on a size 18 olive Ducks Dun. Grayling from 8 -16” and trout all <10 inches. Hoping we don’t have another heatwave any time soon. Regrettably, no sign of much needed rain.
