Feedback & Reports

River at 1’1” and clearing slowly. Some luck after a fashion today with a take from a known lie in the bottom of the beat early afternoon. Strangely, very little fight but what I thought was probably a chub turned out to be a small, very coloured cock salmon that had probably been in the system for some time.
A bit skinny but with no sign of any fungal infection.
Played hard, not netted, and swiftly released “Oykel Style”. Guesstimate 6-7lb.
Fished most of the beat with nothing else seen before finishing in heavy rain at 5.00pm.
From the Chapel Catch.
Silver Stoat dressed on 1/2” copper.

First time on this beat of the Lugg, trip was curtailed due to late arrival because of road closures in the local area and having to get back for baby grandson duties. So, just a quick recce of this interesting stretch of water, still carrying the milky grey colour. No fish but will definitely return early next season. Absolutely beautiful setting.
