A super fresh fish of about 10 lb this morning on beat 3 to a size 8 Willie Gunn. One fish lost on beat 4. Fish showing last night and this morning. Lets hope they keep on coming.

2 brown trout caught and taken. The first was on an olive dun. The second on a black gnat. Both at Farm pool.

A beautiful day, warm and bright. No great hatch but some flies drifting off throughout the day. Fished from 11 to 5 when I had to leave: I guess the evening would have been tremendous had I been able to stay. No sign of trout during the day, not a rise in sight, but the grayling were in evidence. Four caught on a parachute Adams, one nice one at 14 inches and three more around 12 ins. This is a lovely beat with accessible wadeable stretches for the no longer young.

Superb weather, wonderful surroundings, crap fisherman! 5 fish risen to fly - missed all of them!

Nil!

Might be worth mentioning on the WUF website the proximity of the caravan park.

A beautiful day in stunning surroundings. Trout ultra spooky with one small fish to hand and a better one that came adrift.

A short after lunch session, odd fish seen but none tempted to the fly.

Blanked. Hot sunny day, gin clear water. Fished from 0930 till 1600, despite a profusion of fly life (yellow mays, mayflies, olives in a range of sizes and a lot of hawthorns) I only found three rising fish, spooked two and hooked one for it to come off shortly after. Tried prospecting with a dry, the duo and upstream nymphing with a variety of weighted patterns to no avail. Did see a couple of cormorants that might have spooked the fish.

Stunning wild stretches of water with heavily wooded banks and waterfalls. Bluebells and flowers blooming and perhaps one of the most beautiful bucolic settings I have had the pleasure of seeing olives out in force, fooled some on an adams which they seemed to prefer to my olive patterns. 7 trout caught, 3 on dries and 4 on nymphs, best fish was probably over 2lbs and 5 of the 7 were better than a pound.
