hot day - Caught the tail end of a rise in the morning and caught one 30cm brown trout between the first two riffles below the bridge, on dry fly.

feeding stopped in the heat and I came back for the evening, lots of fly life but no luck until the last bit of light, at the bottom riffle, 30cm brown trout on a big caddis.

Beautiful stretch of river with lots of fish and insects, plus dippers and kingfishers!

all fish returned

We were hoping for more water in the river and a bit more cloud cover, but we were blessed with a very sunny day ... At least there wasn't much wind!
Fished beats one and two in the main. No sign of salmon but plenty of other fish seen. Two cheeky accidental trout caught.
Osprey, Hobby, Sandmartins seen. Woodpecker and cuckoo heard.
Good company, lovely day on the water.

A hot and sunny day with the river low. Spent an enjoyable and fine 4 hours with just one 'take' on an EHC and caught and released an 11" wbt . Hope to return later in the season.

Wet flies on 6wt rod. There were 3 anglers, both trout were caught by my daughter Sarah! Exciting first catch on a fly rod, in honor of her late grandfather, Prof H.H. Binhammer.

A 2-hour afternoon session on the Rectory in bright and quite blustery conditions. Landed one nice trout of 14" on a cdc olive emerger plus three smaller ones. There were a few olives coming off and a few rises in the flats but unfortunately I had to leave at around 4pm just when it felt like an evening session would have been much more productive.

Still low and clear, warm & bright day. Arrived at 12, with rise in full swing (should have arrived earlier), to emergers I'd say. 4 fish, 13 to 16 inches, on PTN and dun (14) later. Not much hatch, or rise, after 1pm. 1 salmon smolt (5 inches, silvered). 4 ospreys
