Nice height (1' on Fownhope gauge) but water still too coloured after recent small rise. Plenty of walkers and canoeists about.

Nil return but lost a fish in the Slaughter Crib. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and the beat. Many thanks to Simon.

What a brilliant low water beat. From Slaughter crib to Biblins run is a sequence of dreamy fly water with lies a plenty. When you finish one pool, another appears before you. Both fish took a size 8 Bann shrimp, the first a hen of around 8lb from the tail of the channel in Botchers rock, the second was my smallest Wye salmon. A little cock grilse of around 3lb that was lying were the Biblins run splays out across the channel. There were trout on the lip of every pool keen to eat the salmon fly and a couple were well over the pound.

Went down and gave the steady water in the middle a cast after. Plenty showing in this section but no takes. The 2 coarse fisherman were both fishing the sliding ground and both very polite and nice.

Did not see a single canoe. All walkers were nice and both salmon had an audience.

Had an enjoyable days fishing. Seen couple of fish show in slaughter crib also several fish showing in martins bar. I could'n't manage to tempt a salmon into taking.

Hot day, no fish seen none taken. Nice beat, very pretty place to be in any weather. Foundation staff were a great help, thanks! Quite few canoes on this beat.
