River Very Brown

Unable to fish river in flood

No Salmon caught

Got to river later than I wanted, fished the fly down the rock pool and bang into a fish yes, but we parted company when it screamed straight at me. .
Shad are now present

3 Other

Fly and spinner nil return other than one small Shad. River at a good height but no fish seen which at this time of the year was unheard of. Access to two of the best runs difficult in one case and dangerous in another (the Neck) which was one of the best runs at the same height when I last had the Friday rods some 30 years ago. Beat requires some bank work and trimming/clearance of withies on the Islands. Additionally, some less than thoughtful anglers have discarded their rubbish by dropping it over the veranda of the fishing hut. Saddening lack of weed in the river which used to be plentiful particularly above Boughrood Bridge. It was also sad to see a once glorious part of the river reduced to what it is now. River authorities need to hang their head in shame.
