Feedback & Reports

Staying nearby and always wanted to fish Courtfield in April so took advantage of a half price evening ticket to have a look. Signs at water plant say strictly no parking anywhere conflicting advice in the beat notes, so moved and parked on verge near Leg meadow crib. Opted to spin as river slow/low and short of time/new beat to me. Generally there's lots of deep slow water but spinning gaps between trees through legg meadow strangely felt excellent and several pike follows and a jack took a SHFC. Cribs through wood were lovely, then drove to lower end pools for a few casts. No Salmon seen but enjoyed a nice short evening session, easy welly boot spinning covered some interesting water. Many thanks to all allowing us to fish here.

Although no salmon were caught, a great day of casting tuition and guiding from Oliver Burch. I think the Ross gauge was at 0.55 and the water had about three feet of visibility so on the low end of medium height. The Vanstone didn’t reveal its treasures but there were fish present in the pool above, the corner tree.

Low water but fish showed in the sections with a bit of flow
