Feedback & Reports

In spite of the forecasts, the afternoon was sunny and bright, but pretty cold. The river was coloured but at a fishable height. Some flies were coming off, but a rising fish was a rare sight. The one I did find was keen to take my fly, but less keen to be hooked. A blank day, but a delightful chance to explore more of this lovely beat which I visited for the first time last week.

Did not fish - river running like hot chocolate.

Very tough river condition. Low water, no hatch, 1 hooked fish lost. Otherwise this is a very beautifull stretch. Many thanks to trust.

Fished 2.30-5.30, just the lower half. A few inches up and a bit coloured. Sun and heavy showers. Probably arrived too late for any hatches, just saw a few olives. Caught and returned 1 small brown trout on PTN. Lovely place, will return to do whole beat. Have had several outings on Booking Office and Voucher beats this Easter week, service and advice from the office before my trip excellent as usual.

Sadly a blank day. Overcast, chilly and rain at about 13.00. No fish showing although a small hatch at 14.00. However this is an absolutely wonderful beat and I shall be back as soon as possible. First time I have booked on-line and everything - directions etc - worked perfectly.

Nothing caught - spent a couple of hours working the pools mid-beat, but total lack of rises was slightly dis-heartening!

I caught no fish! There was no activity in the morning, but a small hatch of iron blue occurred around lunchtime and around 6-8 trout started rising. I failed will all!

2 trout < 1lb caught on spiders during brief hatch of ldo at lunchtime. Lost a clunker in the deep on teh nymphs later in the day just downstream of SENTA.

Both anglers blanked. Nice looking stretch of river but no real sign of any fish just yet. Will look to return when the weather improves.

Nothing caught I'm afraid. Very nice day, a bit cold to start (4 degrees) but got to 12 later on. Water was reasonably high/good. No rising fish, and although many spots felt 'fishy' I had no takes at all. Used march brown nymphs, grhe nymphs and pheasants tail of different sizes. Across and down, upstream etc. there was a hatch of March Browns, and a reasonably big one too (at times 6 or more passing by) and still no rises. I walked the whole of the beat from bottom to top. If I did not know better I would say there were no fish!! However I think the temp and weather change towards high pressure was to blame - that's how I'm dealing with it any way!
