Feedback & Reports

No takers today. River at 6” on the gauge, good colour and stayed this way all day. I was blessed with a clear view of three fish in various pools, had to settle for that and good size by-catch. Thank you.

Very enjoyable day; weather much better than the forecast but alas no fish!

Had a 1.5lb brown trout third cast on a small tube which pulled hard and had me thinking it was a grilse for the first minute or so.

8 hours later that was the only fish I'd had. Didn't see any Salmon.

Water level was around 6 inches. Some of the pools were great for the fly but overall I reckon it would be better at 8-10 inches, possibly a foot.

Just one salmon seen making its way upstream late evening. despite the lack of fish, had a very satisfying day.

Nothing to report as I didn't fish. One day I will get there !

A lovely day of fishing - beautiful water, perfect antedote to the rat-race - but sadly saw nothing until I disturbed a fish in slack water of 2ft depth as I was about to climb out of the river at the exit above Martin's pool. I nearly trod on it, showing just how inactive fish seemed to have been that day.

Thank you for letting me enjoy your wonderful river.

1 sea trout around 1.5lbs caught. No salmon although a few were showing around Martins Bar and Pool.

Clear and relatively high water and bright skies, and not a sight of a salmon all day. Two decent chub (would have been great on the right tackle, but not so much fun on a 15' salmon rod).
Lovely water. Apart from around the pools/runs just above and below footbridge it seems most of it fishes best from the left bank (for a fly), this could be clearer in the beat details.
