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.

fast flowing and clear conditions. good stamp of chub caught up to 5.5lb and a bonus 6lb barbel which was in great condition.

1 Barbel, 6 Chub

Bait was bread and maggots. Bread caught the better stamp of fish.

12 Chub

GARNONS, 28lb salmon for Ricky Reno at 1.30pm. Took a red fc.
What a fight, jumping and stripping line.

Fishing Passport Note : The fish was initially reported as 28lb but the tape was misread and recalculated as 15lb.

The day started clear and sunny, about 7C when I started fishing at 1030. Breeze picked up from 11 and the best is quite exposed so I felt the cold, especially when it clouded over at noon. Water is a brisk 4C and I forgot my thermals so was chilled to the bone and finished at 3 as a few spots of rain started.

No hatch or other fly life seen and no fish made themselves obvious. I tried heavy bugs in the deep channels, nymphs drifted under dries and spiders fished down and across - nothing doing today.

Good access to the beat which feels nice and secluded. I imagine it will be lovely when a tad warmer!
