Difficult conditions...bright sunshine. Sparse occasional hatch, only saw two fish rise all day. Single fish surrendered to a nymph. Stunning stretch of water....will definitely return.

Late start only the one fish but what a cracker - 19/20" on dry fly. Plenty of fish rising later to march browns, but in low clear water hard to get to.

Fished the lower beat during the afternoon. Nothing caught but lost one. Only saw one fish rise.

Hazy and bright sun, v low and v clear. Fished left bank only; parked at east most spot. Olives coming off much of day, fish consistently rising just above small riffle at bottom of hill, didn't manage to get one on dry; 2 fish on nymphs further up beat returned.

Fished early morning 7am-10:00, a bit suicidal given the temperatures, no fly life except small midges, no fish moving. I think the water temperature is still too low. Many caddis larvae on the bottom.
We stayed at the Whitehouse Country Inn, literally 2 mins from the beat.

Beautiful beat and lovely sunny day but unfortunately nothing hatching and no fish to be seen all day. Tried every nymph in the box with no luck, looking forward to coming back once the water has warmed up a little!

After speculating with the Duo in the morning a swap to long leader nymphing around noon caught a 16", 15"and a 14" all on a size 14 tungsten gold head hairs ear, all in good condition.A good hatch of March Browns started around 1.30pm which got some good fish moving in the lower pool. Two fish were hooked and lost on a Deer hair quill emerger which was frustrating.The hatch finished as quickly as it started so I spent the after noon exploring the upper section of the beat.

Fly fishing with a floating line upstream nymph
Water was clear until about 1pm then they coloured up and we packed in. Good hatches of March Browns before water coloured.

Melt water and bright sunlight made for a challenging days fishing! Both fish at a lb. trickle of LDO and MB but nothing rising to them. Fish had on tungsten hares ears
