A lovely stretch of water. Two fish caught.

Quiet day on the river with few fish rising to the fly hatches. Fish around but only had 2 small ones on a gold head fishing with a Klinkhammer and perhaps 3 others missed.
Lovely beat with different types of water and stunning setting.

Only able to fish for a very short time - glorious day, river low, a few yellow duns and mayflies coming off, very few trout showing.

Water level was low and very few fish rising, no interest on the dry fly at all, fish were caught on Holographic Diawl Bach and GHHE, but sill a lovely day.

River running low and clear no fish showing, walked down to Bridge pool bigger fish showing under tree branches on far bank, impossible to cast too. Picked up a few smaller fish from the pool, missed one really big fish among the branches of the tree that has fallen across the pool. Went back later in the day to try again, rose him second cast, pricked him, lost him, nearly cried, packed up and went home! All fish taken on olive cdc dun, happy with number of fish caught but biggest was only about seven inches.

A nice beat with easy access and wading. I struggled today, catching just two small fish on weighted GRHEs. A steady trickle of March Browns enticed a few fish to feed, especially some nice looking fish by High Bank but I couldn't tempt them.

Strted 8am. Lots of fly hatches, fished from lowest section up to Penpont House. Fish were scarce, not many seen. Tied nymph and dry. Had a 22.5cm trout at 4pm. Hard but pleasant day on the river.

None landed. Two trout - both under 6" - hooked but not landed.

We only fished the river from late afternoon as we travelled up from Kent in the morning. The river was running fairly high and coloured but was clearing as we fished into the evening. There were a few trout rising to the hatches later in the day, but none could be tempted by our flies.

River low and clear. Best fish was between 1.5 and 2lb most fish taken upstream nymphing, more surface activity after it started raining and did it rain, absolutely soaked by the time I packed in. All fish in lovely condition and were returned. Best of the three days fishing.
