The river had dropped back after the recent high water and was running clear.
Heavy fog kept the hatching insects down until later afternoon.
Good parking, access and easy wading (although from this time of year on keep an eye open for salmon redds
and it's probably best to avoid where you can't clearly see the bottom)
Most of the fish came to swung spiders. Partridge and orange, and Black and Peacock worked best.
Later in the day there were a few rising fish and a couple of grayling did rise to dries.
A very pleasant day on a lovely piece of water
Many Thanks

River was in good condition and the promised rain didn’t show up. It was overcast and 19 degrees. My first time on this beat and I would recommend it. I fished the middle and down stream section. There is a good variety of water from fast runs to deeper pools but rather easy wading. I fished a New Zealand rig with black klinkhammer and red and black nymph. Caught 4 fit grayling in the deeper water to about a pound and regrettably an out season trout to a pound and a half in the faster water. All returned without them being taken out of the water

The river level had dropped back to near summer level and with a cold start and a sunny day the fishing was not easy. I spent the morning getting to know the bottom half of the beat and picked up a couple of Grayling on nymphs. The afternoon was spent casting a Klinkhammer under the trees on the far bank for a few more fish.

The river had changed a bit since I was last here. No monsters today but good numbers of grayling to about a pound and trout to one and a quarter. All but one came to dries with some fish in surprisingly shallow water. Another enjoyable day on a great beat.

4 x trout 6-11 inches, 9 x grayling shots 6-9 inches, various dries. Nothing of size, although a few better grayling did raise their heads - but were strangely reluctant to latch on properly. One of those days. Rained all morning and early afternoon, rather more than the forecast had foretold. A rise in the level and muddy colour in the water from side streams stopped play around 3.30.
