Water too high no fish caught

I think £14 is very expensive for 900 yards fishing most of the beat was too fast to hold any fish and the top 300 yards is covered in Alder so not accesible, also no signage as to beat limits or where to park

Lovely day on a lovely beat. Red Tag did the business.

5 Trout, 1 Grayling

Good access and plenty of open water. Fish caught on Red Tag.

2nd trip to this beat. A few flies coming off through the day but only the odd fish rising. 4 fish caught and as many missed. 3 in the 7 to 8 in bracket but 4th nice fish 10 to 11in in tip top condition, took about 5 mins to land leaping clear of the water several times. All fish safely returned. Two canoes appeared in the afternoon telling me they had permission from Raby Estates. Fish caught on mix of wet and dry. 2 fish on olive klinkhammers, 1 on greenwell spider and 1 on hares ear nymph. First time used the passport scheme and very happy with the service

Nice beat. Series of runs and pools. Apart from 100 yds or so at the very top end bank is clear of any obstructions to your back cast. Easy wading for the most part. A few flies coming off but didn’t see a single rise. Usual spiders didn’t produce anything and both fish caught on small bloody butcher

No fish rising so fished the good looking spots. Landed a cracking Brown trout

My third and last day, water levels were high, lots of debris from the overnights conditions, but stuck with the olive nymphs and netted another grayling (lost another). Great location to fish from, easy wading and hardly any trees, weeds or bushes.
