Day 1 of the season for me. 3 fish to 1.5lbs. First 2 on March Brown dry. Last fish black Wooly Bugger. Cracking hatch in the middle of the day 11.30am-12.45pm, then quiet. Sun blazing hot - 16 degrees. No cloud. Missed 2 on dries before I caught in the morning, and then missed another in the evening shortly before my last fish. This one felt heavy and attacked the steamer, rod tip bouncing, then was off.

It has become difficult in recent years. Instead of Autumn arriving fairly reliably, Summer goes on a while longer. Whilst Autumn is more in evidence this year, water isn't. It seems to go from tomato soup and rather deep and fast to nearly nothing. Today it was low and dropping fast with no rain forecast for another week at least; in other words, maybe by the end of the season. I wonder if the season could be extended by a week or maybe to 31st October....
A few salmon were showing and I did hook one. I thought I'd hooked a rockand pulled the line. The 'rock' shook violently and swam off!
I also saw a poacher. I ha phoned NRW who were just about useless. I've written about this to the WUF too.

What a disastrous day.... It started off well. When we arrived the river as at a nice height and little colour. We each caught 5 trout in the same 15 minutes. Then..... The river rose by 18 inches in half an hour. I was in the middle and couldn't believe how quickly the conditions changed. It became very dangerous and not fishable - and the water turned to tomato soup! I exited the river as fast as I could. We did stay in the hope the water would fall towards the end of the afternoon. It didn't much and not enough to attempt to fish.

Lovely beat, hot day, no rise and very little insect life. Nothing caught - must try harder!
