Feedback & Reports

Bright sun and low water made for difficult conditions. No salmon seen all day.

Warm sunny day with occasional cloud and light breeze. The river seemed to be running at a nice level, and appeared to have a little colour in it, probably from the showers the previous day.
Fished from the bottom of the beat to just above the bridge, fishing dries all day with black clink hammer being the most successful.
Six brownies to hand, between 6 and 8 inches, missed and lost quite a few more. Most of the fish coming from slower water, this gave them plenty of time to suss out my fly and shy away at the last second!
Lovely beat except for the one very large tree on the lower half that was difficult to get past, required a bit of climbing!
There is also what looks to be an otter holt on the lower part of the beat too, didn't seem to affect the fishing

Only fished for 2 hours around lunchtime.Very hot and sunny.No rising fish seen

All small and caught on dry f-flies

1 Trout, 2 Grayling

Bright sun and gin clear water probably not the best recipe for catching salmon! Plenty of fly water available at this height (0.35m on Ross gauge). Plenty of chub around including some in the 5lb+ range

1 Chub

12 x trout 6-14 inches, Parachute Adams and Olive JG Emerger. Mostly small fish and in fact very hard work today in hot sun. There were few fish rising and much roaming up and down the bank needed to find them. A few olive uprights hatching and even fewer mayfly, but the fish don't seem switched onto them yet - today at least.
