Very difficult today, bright, hot, sunny and a low river.
Managed just one trout on a nymph and missed a couple of takes on a dry but there were virtually no fish rising at all. There was a steady precession of upwings from the smallest to the largest Mayfly, Black gnats and the banks were strewn with stone fly shucks in places but the trout just weren’t having it today.
Stunning beat, one of my favourites so I’ll definitely be back.

This is going to be one of those "Nevertheless, a good day to be out on the river" type of returns.
Low clear water, high bright sun. Difficult conditions for my first time on this beat. The wading is tricky too, and the steep wooded banks make for a difficult backcast, so difficult to get a fly into just the right spot.
Hardly any fish were rising; a few sporadic hatches tempted the fish up.
I toiled away in the hot sun - nymphs and dries - without a single take.
Nevertheless, it's a beautiful beat, and a good day...etc...etc..

river low and the day was suprisingly chilly, we upstream nymph fished and klink and dink
Frank Jones had the majority of the fish klink and Dink
small rise mid afternoon saw me into a nice 1lb plus fish on the black klink,

Hards day fishing, downstream wind and cold all day. 1 trout on the nymph. Very few fish seen all day.

Very hot and bright. A few fishing moving first thing but then very quiet. I persisted with the dry but could add nothing to the 2 caught before 11.00hrs. Best fish approx 1.5lbs.

Caught two small fish in morning on para adams. Fishing slowed in afternoon. There were some occasional rises, but likely due to the bright, clear skies fished stayed down as day went on. I probably could have caught more by nymphing but having just moved to the UK from US, and having fished nymphs all winter there, wanted to stay on top. Even though slow, great day on the water and this run is very nice with a lot of variety.
