Well opted for the lovely Hergest Court beat , parked up at half nine and at the same time a white truck pulled up from the WUF , had a nice chat with Louis and still doing work on this beat ,but assured him I'll only be fishing from the bottom up!! Looks like quite a bit more fencing work to be done here and stiles too I believe !!! Chappy I spoke to later did say Stiles are also being put up near the weir !! Spot on I thought !!! Much needed!!

Anyway , onto the fishing , good fishing this morning , nymphs , both flashback PTN , and baetis nymph hit hard this morning , fish ranging from five to eleven inches , spot on !!! No interest in dries as only saw one rise , and that was at midday !!! Some LDO's showing at half twelve but I was wrapping things up at half one so didnt get any dry fly action.!!!

Still a fun four hours sport , nine Arrow beauties to the net and two long range releases , spot on.!! Rivers at a lovely height just now , and I may give the Kington beat a quick bash one evening this week if weather permits !!!

Be excellent here when the WUF chaps have completed all the work !! And some cracking fencing and tree kickers now in situ , great for the trout ,lots of hard work done !! A fun morning, great sport as always , lovely job . . . .

Arrived to fish for an hour after a day on the lower river. Beat looked scenic as usual and conditions promising. Got a firm take just by the tip of the Rock. Had a dogged fight and a 14lb cock fish swam away strongly on release.. Floating line, 5 ft fast sink poly and smallish conehad Cascade. Had a blank season last year so felt especially good. The tug is still the drug !
