River very low and clear. Colder after warm weather during the week and not many fish rising. Caught and returned two c. 14oz grayling both on dry fly. Beautiful stretch of river with lots of variety. Lots of wildlife. Will definately try it again.

Shocking weather - upstream, very cold, strong, blustery wind of the blow-your-hat-off type (do W&U have a 'blow-off' policy?) Also some heavy rain showers Virtually no hatch (a few large and small olives, a couple of grannom), very few rises.

4 trout < 12oz, 2 grayling. Hooked and bumped-out of 8 others. The fish were reluctant to say the least, and presentation of dry fly virtually impossible. Caught on nymphs, hooked 1 on a klink.

Disappointed, but look forward to fishing it when they are 'on' !

3 small brown trout, all returned, caught on brown weighted pheasant tails. Excellent service and signposting from the Foundation.

My catch return for Sat 25th April at Lyepole was 1 brown trout weighing 1/2 pound

A brilliant days fishing for my son and myself. Thanks

Wonderful day on the river, three fish caught on a dry fly at 1 3/4 lb,1 1/2 lb and 3/4 lb, one taken for my tea and the other two returned, many thanks.

7 trout one over a pound. 3 grayling. All taken on klinkhammer. Fantastic days fishing.

Hot clear day with constant olive hatch throughout the day.

Reasonable amount of fish rising.

4 trout caught and released, 3 taken on dry, one on a gold headed nymph. All caught from the upper beat, best fish a fin-perfect brownie of just over a pound.

Great day, would thoroughly recommend the beat.

No fish caught. Small amount of fishing rising to a reasonable olive hatch mid morning.

What a fantastic place would kill to live in that cottage!
Great day, weather and conditions great. Total 6 fish all around 12 inches and all returned. All but one caught on gold heads fished NZ stlye the other one took a grey duster parachute. Had loads of fish rise to my indicater, which was either an Adams or grey duster but failed to connect. Not much hatching, a few olives made an appearance around lunchtime, fish ignored them. Loads of hawthorns about. Nice dead sheep in river.....

5 Trout caught on dry fly from 11" up to 16". Beat is hard to fish and was only able to fish a few sections.
