Feedback & Reports

had a good ramble today , plenty of fly on the water, mayfly , olives, midge , stonefly and several rising trout and grayling as I arrived during a steady hatch of mayfly. half a dozen fell for cdc mayfly the rest to nymph as the hatch had ended within half hour and the rises ceased. I lost several other trout to hook pulls also. this beat is quite overgrown now and glad I fished it early , within a couple more weeks will be very dense with foliage . size between7-12 inches with the majority 9 inches.

5 Lovely trout all on a Jingler. Not a lot rising although few Danica and Yellow Mays were coming off.

I found this to be a very challenging beat, it is very overgrown with very difficult access to the river (i had to bushwhack trough shoulder height nettles) and even harder egress. There were lots of fallen trees blocking the river, the only area that is easy to access is the central section where i picked out 2 nice 14" trout to a dry fly. I hooked and lost 2 others and missed strikes on 3 more so could have still been a productive day.

Excellent conditions Fish rising but being fussy. Little rascals

Tough to fish in some spots with the water carrying a bit of colour, but managed to land one beautiful Salmon parr and one bigger brown trout (both safely returned). Lost 5 fish that I hooked up, they were all too fiery for my line haha!

1 Trout, 2 Chub, 1 Other

Big thanks to Mick the guide put me on a fish again. Unfortunately after jumping spectacularly five times the fresh fish won the battle. I went home with my tail between my legs.

Overcast & cool. River medium flow & clear. Hatch, male Olive Upright from midday. Also a few mayfly & sedges.
2 small trout 6in, 1 good 10in on small sedge. Not much surface activity.

Fished both with Dries and a single nymph. Cloudy day no wind and very pleasant. 3 x trout were small but one was between 2 and 2 1/2lb, this caught on a nymph. Found dries difficult to select as the trout rejected nearly everything I used.
