Spent a lovely morning fishing dry fly - one nice brown trout and turned plenty of smaler fish on a Grey Duster. Great water, can't wait to get back and fish again.

Haven't fished there for around 2 years and won't be rushing back any time soon. Totall waste of money.
3 rod licenses 3permits and not even 1 bite very very disappointed.

Some nice pools and riffles but as other reports say this beat is way overgrown. There were places I went into the river a year ago I couldnt even find. A nice spot but I won’t be back til it is improved. No fish showing. 1 grayling.

Nothing caught very low water. Walked the beat saw one trout tried for an hour or so but was not worth fishing so decided to head home.

Very tricky wild beat. The water level was very low and unfortunately the bridge in Duhonw is out completely for 6 weeks, so instead of a 5 minute trip the other end of of the beat, its a 40 min car journey. Frustrating.

Not many rises throughout the day. Lovely beat though. Need some rain to raise the levels.

Basically a rekkie trip . Entered from the downstream end. Road access is good along the long strech but there are a few junctions where you have to make a decision. We are all senior citizens and found access to the waterside vert difficult. Maybe 1 swim at the bottom end by the island with a rope. Then a long stretch of sluggish water till you get to the suspension bridge where again you would need a rope to access the good looking swims there. We avoided the rope swing swing knowing what would happen when the walkers arrived. Many of them on a friday.
We settled at the top end because of easy steps downstream of the slalom course. We had 4 chub and 3 eels before leaving at lunchtime. Like to return but despite the ease of vehicular access the access to the river is a challenge. Left by the upstream gate - much easier.

4 Chub, 3 Other
