A high lightly coloured river that rose at first then slowly fell. Rain and wind. Late in the afternoon a smattering of LBD and Olives tempted a few trout to rise but continuous high water has not given this spring the best of starts.

Good numbers of small fish rising and willing to take the fly from mid afternoon. All were 8 to 12 inches.

Water levels were around 0.620 and challenging contitions. The brown trout caught measured from 25 cm - 38 cm (10 - 15"). All of them were caught on nymphs upstream, Duracell's, Croston's, Roza's and PT size 14 - 16.

Another bitter northerly. Nothing hatching. Managed to winkle one out. Hard going.

1 Trout

All fish taken on nymphs, combo of ESN and Duo.
Temperature down to 5/6 deg. Cold wind upstream and light drizzle on and off.
Light Olive hatch during the day. Fish didn't seem to be dialed into them. Odd fish rising inconsistently, observed them being very selective and allowing multiple naturals to drift over them and not move. The fish were more active very late in the day.
