Water conditions good. Lovely warm day with olives and the occasional March brown but nothing rising to the hatches. 1 hard fighting but skinny 15” trout on a nymph

My first chub was just shy of 5lbs so that was a great start. But I struggled after that until the late afternoon when the chub seemed to switch on again. No barbel - I think the water was still too cold after so many nights of frost. Very easy fishing here with lots of accessible swims and few steep banks.

Quite a long and varied beat, very rocky in places. Little signs of life, perhaps a bit early. A nice walk/wade though.

Spent a few hours from mid morning to mid afternoon hoping for a small hatch of some kind but nothing. I tried wets, dry dropper and still nothing. River was a tad high and the sun was very bright. All in all my hopes for an early season fish were shot.

Some nice pools and the section below the bridge looks like a good spot when the fish want to play. Lots of the lower beat had poor access to the water.

nice to look at this beat this year nothing seen or caught

Bright day. Clear water. Luncheon meat and pellet. No luck
