River was a good height and running clear, though signs of the low water and high temperatures of earlier in the year were everywhere in the brown algae coating the gravel and stones. One Salmon Parr and all but the best grayling at 14", which came to a hydropsyche nymph fished in the head of a fast run came to a s18 Adams or hairs ear f-fly. Best brown at around 15" was covered in a small pocket between rocks and low hanging trees and I was surprised by its size given the tight location. There was some semblance of an evening rise in the slower stretches near the top but almost impossible to cover the fish effectively with the tippet showing clearly against the strong surface tension in the water, until I figured out to cover them casting downstream with slack line when it was almost dark - note to others, don't be as dumb as I was.

Water quite low. Light rain but very mild. All fish caught at the lower end of the beat, all on a dear hair emerger. Lost one very substantial trout that bent the rod more than anything else I have ever hooked - broke the leader! Will return.

River in very good condition , water clear and levels good. Bright day with no surface action but sporadic hatches.
All fish caught on a gold beaded black ptn fished duo style under a klinkhammer. A delightful day to be on the river. One of the grayling was a good size - over 10 inches. No trout but one did splash at the klinkhammer and turned away.

Lovely day, water is low talking with a gentleman clearing the banks he reckons well over a meter below it’s normal level, I struggled with nymphs catching the bottom. A few rises through out the day and the three fish falling to dry flies.
