Very cold, intermittent snow. Water was coloured with poor visibility, only one fish seen - rising amongst a knot of branches in the thickly wooded part of the beat and impossible to reach. An attractive stretch and looks worth returning to when it's warm. The map may need updating as sheep fencing means that there is no access to much of the Southern bank. This isn't really a problem though as the river is so small.

I feel sorry for the fish on this beat - we saw goosanders, cormorants, herons and a lot of evidence of otters. This may sound like an excuse for not catching anything but the fish were very spooky and often in difficult lies to get a fly over them. However despite the temperatures 3-4c and snow flurries we did see some fish rising to the lunchtime hatch and some good size fish at that. I think I have to go back to the drawing board with regard to my fly tying!! Lovely beat, now my third visit, hope it warms up soon!

Way too cold and couldn't stop the rings from icing up. We gave in after just a couple of hours!

All fish where over 2lb in weight. 4 on worm and 2 on wet fly. Weather was cold and snowy.

No fish seen. Snowing, windy, cold weather.....no touch at all.

Wind, snow. Nil caught.

Fished for about 3 hours. Water condition was excellent. It was a really cold day with a brisk wind. Water was freezing on the rod. No takes.

way too cold

No fishing. 2 feet of snow. Nowhere to park because of snow. River high but considering amount of snow and rain remarkably clear. Will be back in 2 weeks to try again.

Not a chance; river was in flood, a raging brown torrent. Lovely place though, I'll be back.
