Fishing becomes more challenging on the way up. Don't be put off by the overgrowth, there's rivers and streams out there with much denser banks than this. Like most streams and becks, the fish are small but compensate with their beauty.
As it is a first visit, I'm not sure what the water clarity is usually like but today the beck was flowing with a dark tea colour. Nymphs used today were copper olive jigs and holographic blue ribbed hares ears.
I recommend using a single nymph and have a vary of different sized beads depending on the flow and depth as the bed is snaggy from the rocks.
