3 Trout, 7 Grayling

A second blanked day. Didn't see a fish in 7 hours, I was flyfishing and my son was spinning.. This reservoir is too heavily poached night lines are prevalent. Would like to know when this reservoir was last stocked. Will not come back here probably go to Chew or Blagdon

Popped down to Wyebank for a quick evening session, conditions were varied with many showers one heavy. The Wye was running nicely, I used pellet with a feeder which produced four fish during my stay. Three barbel and one chubb were a reasonable reward, none of the fish caught were of any size but they all looked well given the recent conditions. All were rested before and after removing the hook and swam away strongly.

3 Barbel, 1 Chub

An enjoyable 2 hours at the end of the day. Trout rising but sporadically making targeting tricky. Two small and healthy brown trout caught and released without contact. Both taken on adams dry size 14.

Pleasant evening after heavy showers all day. Water just over .41m and warm compared to air temperature. Used a single size 12 spider pattern with partridge wings and alternate brown and blue lure flash wound body. Had an offer from a trout in woodstream which was encouraging and landed two others soon after of a pound and three quarters of a pound, but little afterwards. I switched to dry sedge at 21.30 in woodstream and enticed a large brown to smash it but it came off having left the water completely with aerial acrobatics. The fish was around two and a half pounds so disappointed I did not land it.
John fished pheasant tail nymph and landed three nice dace of around half pound each in woodstream. He also hade a take from a trout of around half pound but it came off.
Pretty good overall given the condition of the water.

A cooler day today, initially anyway!! Up at four , all jobs done and the pooch had a bimble ,plumbed for the Edw @ Hundred House ! Got there at ten to six tackled up my usual rig ,misty and lovely and cool to be honest . . . . Reading twelve in my truck , nice !!!

First important task was a temp reading of the water which was 13 degrees, happy with that!! I took it in three more locations as well , all reading thirteen, sorted !!fine for some fishing . . .

Fished dry all morning , Para Greenwells and Adam's, both effective but tricky in places to get a cast away !!! Like a jungle here although as always great fun and some cracking takes this morning too !!lovely bit of sport i must say !!But as always if your carefull on the Edw you can get a dry pretty close to rising fish !! And explosive takes too ! Awesome !!!

Twelve to the net this morning ranging from twelve inches to seven . Four of them really nice fish this morning and plenty of poke in them too . I bet they're relieved like us that the mad scorchio week is over . . . Eeekkkkkkkk bit too much ! And rain to this week I hope! Didn't get any on the weekend on the outskirts of Leominster !! Oh well ,.all down London it seems .

A lovely four hours in one of my favourite spots ! Only did a bit over half of it ! Fun as always here and let's hope this Lilliputian stream has a bit of water soon ! It's pretty much on its bones . Back on the Edw end of the week maybe , spot on . . . . .
