Feedback & Reports

0 fish caught. Not one bite. Many anglers on the bank with same issue.

Once again very few fish looking up despite consistent hatches throughout the day. The nymph accounted for the majority. One lovely 2lb fish to a moth at dusk was the exception.

A slow day. Bright conditions. One trout about half a pound one about quarter of a pound.

At last - decent weather on a Thursday! And it fell on the day we booked one of our favourite beats too...The river looked in superb condition - clean and flowing well. Not much of a hatch but we could still get the fish looking up to our dries - 22 caught in total, trout and grayling too both to 15" and also 6 greedy salmon parr. The fish are all in super condition - fat and fighting well, especially the grayling in fast water. Someone should tell them to leave our flies alone till next week! All returned fit and healthy, hope to meet them all again when they have grown some more. Very pleasant chat with Mrs M-S out walking the dogs too. Many thanks for making this super fishing available.

Lovely stretch of challenging water ideal for stalking the wild Brownies. Stealth and casting skill being the order of the day, sight fishing and sending your fly over the trout provided some patient sport but this was rewarded with 16 fine brownies ranging from 6" to 10" . Last fish of the day took to 1.5hrs of casting and recasting but it did eventually fall to my 20th fly type!!! Great day out with plenty of hatches, 90% of the fish caught on Grey Wulf the others falling to CDC type sedge in the late evening sunshine.

My father was fishing with a fly not sure what type - saw quite a few fish but caught none as he slipped on the river bank and hurt himself so fishing had to be abandoned.

Very overgrown and difficult access due to hefers in field with what appeared to be electric fencing. Also visited Pinsley brook - impossible to fish due to overgrowth and heavy barbed wire fence on both banks. Not a good day.

Fished from midday through afternoon. Trout rising to mayfly. All caught on small (12/14) Grey Wulff, with 3 fish each over 1lb.
