Thought I'd get a session in on the Edw, before tonight's weather warning, which pinged on my phone this morning, for heavy rain ... hopefully for quite a while too !!
When I parked up at half eleven the Edw was pretty low .... in desperate need of a good flush through too, in places that yucky dead algae in the quite nearly still pools .... It needs a dam good load of fresh water !!! Tis getting really jungley half way up, in need of Some TLC too, this beat along with Cregrina.... Not sure when this was last clipped and tidied up ???? I did a bit , but it really needs a winter session on it !!!
Anyway , wowser a fabulous session, amongst a tally of eleven to my net , sizes ranging from eight to I'd say fifteen inches maybe ... two of the fush were belters... both on the dry, sent barmy in the low water too....as always presenting a well placed dry fly!!!... well, I don't fish anything else from spring right through to September!!! Seems to work for me !!!!....
The one fish gave me a real run around on the six foot , two weight rig, lovely stuff, well rested, then he was away ..... spot on !! Some lovely rises to my dry this afternoon, that saud a good few olives and black sedge about.. Finished up by the Hergest Falls at half three, a fantastic sporting session on an old favourite..... ohhhh and walking back... there is that old "duck weeded" up pond in the woods, I watched a grass snake work it way across ....Real beauty too ....Did keep my eyes peeled re: crayfish,but on stone turning saw only two bullheads and one stone loach ..... Lovely to see these little fish ...... Will be back here once we've had a decent drop of rain !!!
