River high and fast and the water very brown. 3/4 lb on May Fly in morning close to the bank and 1/2 lb on Black Peacock late afternoon. Lots of surface rises from 4pm - lots of fly changes but couldn't work out what they were taking

No catch to report. It was a bit cold, so the fish weren't 'on'.

Wind, sleet, sunshine and cold conditions made fishing difficult. Few rises observed and disappointingly a blank day despite trying 'every' fly in the box!.

Very difficult day, intermittent hatches of olives and a few March Browns throughout the middle part of the day but the fish didn't really respond with the occasional fish showing once but no more. Resorted to nymphing without success but neither of us are experts. Still a lovely place to spend the day though.

A difficult day today, weather mostly overcast and cold with a brisk wind at times. A gorgeous place to be but neither of us caught today. Back in May so hopefully things will have warmed up by then.

We kept this stretch for our last day because it is our favourite. two of us headed downstream as there was not much showing and fished with nymphs without success. Before lunch a few fish rose but refused to take our offering. after lunch all three (brothers) of us fished above the bridge managing a few tentative rises but not connecting with anything. late on my younger brother swung his wets below the bridge which accounted for a couple of knocks .
