4 x grayling 10-14 inches, Grayling Steel Blue etc. Various small trout and parr. Quite a while since I fished here and there was not much going on during this rather warm morning. I spent several hours teasing a few grayling at the bottom of the beat or perhaps they were teasing me. Anyway, it was very slow going. Finally fell asleep on the bank after lunch. A client did much better a few miles downstream at Erwood the following day.
Incidentally, there are huge numbers of salmon parr pestering away at the dry fly this autumn in this part of the river while we are trying to catch grayling. Some of them are quite large, presumably the result of the excellent spawning run of 2012. I should think some might be 7 or even 8 inches by the time they go to sea next spring.

The river is very low and there were not many fish rising. The trout and grayling came to the nymph.

28" coloured cock fish today, size 12 Bann Shrimp. Had a rare day off work so went fishing. Can't believe I actually caught something at 7 1/2" on the gauge.

Fished bottom of beat with nymphs, have done well here before but just a couple of takes and didn't connect with anything. No rises seen.

This beat is very difficult to enter the water when the river is up. The right bank which is most of the beat is overgrown and in places blocked by fallen trees. Tried to fish from the bank no joy.
0 return. I think the landowner needs to do a little bit of gardening, not impressed.

11" on the gauge, clear water, overcast in the morning, brighter in the afternoon. Couple of grilse showing in the Stepping Stones early on but no offers.
First time on the beat. Along with studded soled waders and a wading stick (absolute essentials on this beat) the ability to Spey cast is pretty necessary too (not something I'm great at!). The walk up to the top of the beat along the bank is pretty hard going too, all in all a pretty challenging beat.
Looking forward to trying some other beats through the WUF.

Just a couple of very small trout and a grayling on all types of nymphs tried all day - must be losing my touch!
