Looking for a silver tourist! No joy … but brownies were certainly looking up, 17 to hand best 16”, all safely returned. Great fun on a lovely beat. The access is superb … spectacular styles … and wading is easy on this beat. Otter seen … and swimming squirrel. Cormorant and goosanders not so welcome. The 17 fish all took the same fly which also took 12 on the Wye last week … a size 14 grey parachute, one to keep in the fly box.

Fished from 8:30 to 2:30 solely on the dry fly. Overcast conditions were perfect but rain and wind gusts made it tough at times. Fish were rising here and there and I made the most of that netting 7 brownies all under a 1lb, lost a couple more before the net and missed a few due to watching the wildlife. Water level was low but seemed clear and clean. I do enjoy this beat.

Fished from midday to 4pm with plenty of fish rising. Mostly small 6-10 inch fish but I saw a couple of good size fish jump. I was struggling to catch until I extended my leader to around 13 foot which seemed to do the trick. I think the brightness and low water meant I kept spooking them before hand. Had I set the hook on every fish that took my fly I would have had around 8-10 but for some reason it was a day where either I wasn’t quick enough or my underpants were too tight. Who knows :)
