A Great day fishing. 3 trout on wet fly's from 3/4 to 11/2 pounds. All returned.

Fish came to nymphs in areas of faster flow. Upstream wind and bright sunshine. No sign of a hatch in six hours on the water.

6 Trout, 4 Grayling

Despite bright sunshine, a steady trickle of olives got the fish going. They were taking dries and nymphs for over two hours . They averaged around 9”, the bigger ones giving a good account of themselves in medium fast water above Trerickett Bridge.

Hard going in the morning below the bridge, clear skies and river at summer low. A few medium olives and grannom about but hardly saw a rising fish.
A little better in the middle of the beat in the afternoon.

7 Trout, 2 Grayling

Low clear water. Ongoing LDO hatch brought the fish up. Caught on dries and nymphs.

Low, cold (8.1C), clear water and a bright cloudless sky. Bit of a waste of time from a fishing point of view but nice to get out on the river on a lovely spring day.

Arrived at the beat at low water levels, running pretty clear. Made use of the good pool descriptions and focused on noted low water pools.

No fish seen, not even any rising trout to what was a pretty strong hatch of LDO.

I will definitely be returning to this beat to try again.

3 small trout brought us a little smile to see out a pleasant march day.

Fished the top half of the beat on a rising river but clarity remained good for the fly.
No salmon seen or caught but a nice day dusting off the cobwebs.

Fished with two nymphs above and below bridge, both banks. One tiny pull. Good to see slime free gravel but not much in the way of invertebrates under the stones I lifted. One LDO spotted and a few midges here and there.
