Lovely fresh fish took on an Allys shrimp. Fantastic battle on fly gear and she went back strong. Measured at approximately 21lb.

Low, cold (8.1C), clear water and a bright cloudless sky. Bit of a waste of time from a fishing point of view but nice to get out on the river on a lovely spring day.

With bright sunshine and (slightly) warmer temperatures I thought things might get a bit easier. Wrong. Very little insect activity, the Summer hotspots seemingly empty and a cold gusty breeze all made it tricky. I did manage to scratch out four smallish trout by the end of the day, all on a single small nymph. A+ for effort.

Sunny day and a bit of colour in the water. Lost a good fish in the vanstone on a willie Gunn.

Tried numph dryfly combination after seeing the odd LDO hatching and a couple of fish rise but nothing until 1.15ish when the March Browns appeared and the fish started rising caught a couple of nice 16 and 18 inch browns and then it was all over. not so many flies and the fish went back to sleep.
