Fished with a dropper the lower part of the beat but no takes or rises. Weather turned nicer and warmer in the afternoon but no hatches that I would had expected.
Gusty wind blowing downstream made casting upstreams challenging.

River 5” above summer low. Water temp +/-10 degrees.
Strong NE winds. Fish caught on Fly. Both fish around 1/2 to 3/4 of a pound

Tough conditions. River high and brown. Very very windy so pleased to land one small wild brown trout half way down the stretch. Caught on a brown nymph and returned

Fished 10.45-4.30. Slow at first but fish were still taking nymphs late in the day. One parr, the rest nicely conditioned fish up to 1lb or so.
Three fish to a Jingler , the rest on assorted nymphs.
Very little fly life apart from a small LDO hatch mid afternoon.

19 x trout 8 - 15 inches, mostly on spiders, Waterhen Bloa and Hare's Lug and Plover. Last 4 fish on dries on a pool tail during an LDO hatch, Stuart Jarvis' Bastard Adams and Olive Jingler. Water high but clear. March browns elsewhere on the beat apparently.

The river was still high at 1ft 2ins on the web cam. The cold NE wind blowing downstream and bright sun didn’t help. I saw only a few large Dark Olives hatching after noon and not a single trout rose. All five trout were caught on a deeply fished size 14 olive nymph. They were taken on the flats with no takes in faster streams - presumably because there were no hatches there.
