Feedback & Reports

The water was difficult to access also because of cattle in the field. Some rising fish around noon. Caught three trouts on nymphs. I lost a good fish on an orange spider (hook bend up).

Good day out, lots of varied fly life all day but only a few small sporadic splashy risers. No consistency that I could see. Fluked one on a nymph behind a dry as I was lifting off. I was more suprised than the fish.

Minimal hard standing at designated parking so parked up hill by forestry track. Description says ‘private’ beat. Upstream of bridge public access both banks. Walkers, kids, sunbathers, families and stone skimmers all passed by. Didn’t go to downstream of bridge as 3 anglers there all afternoon. They hardly moved. A brief sparse rise lunchtime but never used the dry fly rod. A welcome warm day so surprised not more activity. Lost v good fish on spiders, then 2 more on nymphs from delightfully named sewage pool. Finally got one at top of beat on a nymph.

Warmer day, up to 18oC and the water was still water coloured. A small hatch around 2-3pm and a few fish began to rise towards to the lower end of the beat. Lost a a few with 3 wbt landed, one on a weighted nymph, 2 on dry flies. Lovely beat, kingfisher seen and will be back. Thanks W&U.
