River running full, fast and clear. A cold bright day with northerly wind after overnight frost. Nothing seen or caught nymphing 2.00 p.m till dusk. Still a lot of greenery around for late autumn.

1x small trout and 1 x small grayling both on nymph. 1 x OOS trout on dry c. 1lb. 1 x 1lb grayling on dry. Grey day, colder than Tuesday.

Top deep pool, one OOS small trout. In the tailout to the top pool two grayling 1+lb and another around 2lb. Trout on orange bead head nymph, both grayling on 16 BWO About 1.30pm. Later, downstream in deep narrow glide a further grayling about 2lb on a 14 CDC dry with green sparkle body. Lovely weather, cloud and sun, no rain for a week after apparently a lot of rain the previous week so evidently still falling and easy wading to knee deep. Started 12.30 finished 5.30. Lovely afternoon.

This for my brother-in-law who is just beginning. None caught, but an enjoyable afternoon.

Good to see the river replenished after recent rain. One 13" OOS trout on GRHE nymph from tail of top pool, but grayling not found despite searching most of beat. Other were salmon parr.

River down to gutter level. Small trout on dry in pool tail & one missed take on nymph. Otherwise very quiet with grayling in hiding, but a pleasant way to while away a sunny September afternoon.

Water low and clear as expected with plenty of leaves now falling making it look quite autumnal.
3 Grayling and 1 trout all over 12 inches on nymph at the bottom end.
Nothing from the big pool at the top.

Arrived late p.m. as cloud evaporated, leaving a bright evening with water low and clear. Fair amount of fly life but very quiet piscatorily until sun neared horizon, when something of an evening rise developed into dusk. Fished dries and picked up one small trout on an Adams and a fine fat grayling on a sedge pattern in unexpectedly good condition for early summer. A beautiful peaceful spot. A couple of would be wild swimmers showed up at the top pool and were kind enough to stay out of the water!
