5 barbel and a chub, largest going 9lb 7 oz. Nearly over the magic double figure mark!...

5 Barbel, 1 Chub

very slow today, started at 11.30 and only brought 6 to the net by 2.30 pm . These six all taking 2.5mm pink bead on point . then for 30 minutes it was a fish every other cast from one glide. all taking 3mm gold bead nymph with a red hotspot. all grayling between 7-16 inches with the majority around 10-12 inches , the trout between 6-17 inches. after this half hour period the river just died. weather was very gloomy with no sunshine and a persistent drizzle all day. river just over a foot on the Lugg camera which is still too low for my liking but hey ho thats fishing

Six grayling to 12” and one oos trout of 10”. Most to a Stewart black spider.

1 Trout, 6 Grayling

Fantastic scenery and a really nice stretch of river. Good mix of deep pools and fast riffles to make the Fishing varied and interesting. Average stamp of grayling about 6 inches but managed to winkle out 3 over a pound each. Most fish coming below the bridge.

River running hard and water very coloured particularly from the side stream which was very red and silt laden. Only a single fish taken which was returned. Lovely beat which I am sure would fish well given better conditions

2 x grayling 10-12 inches, 1 x large chub, long trotting. Plus a run-in with an aggressive salmon which attacked a double maggot bait being reeled upstream. Thankfully it came off after a few seconds. Otherwise, not much to report. River still high and cold and I failed to contact grayling in any numbers on this very cold morning.

Started at bottom of beat and fished all likely holes up to the beat's end, caught two on dry fly rest on nymphs apart from 5, 3-4" graylings the rest were all a decent size including two at 40cm enjoyed the day even though the weather never really warmed up.
