Fished during the evening and caught a couple of small trout. However, whilst upstream nymphing with a size 14 pheasnt tail hooked a much bigger fish of just under 3lbs.

After discussion with WUF staff I think it was a very small grilse. Sea trout or salmon, it was a fairly fresh fish and a very welcome surprise. The fish was safely returned.

River was very low and weather a bit too hot and unfortunately no fish caught but what a fantastic location! A few fish moving but very shallow clear water made them exceptionally spooky.

Weather very hot, three fish (returned) before noon, best fish over a pound, all caught on BWO, some fish rising in the afternoon but I couldn't discover what they had swithed to. Wonderful tranquil setting.

4 rods caught 26 small Brown Trout upto 8 inch size, the pool just below Penpont bridge proving very productive.

Not one of my best days. River very low and conditions bright sun all day. Managed to winkle out 3 trout from under trees tight up against the bank. Not much rising all day suprisingly. One about a pound and two about 4oz.
Must remember not to pick half term week again. Kids at the bottom of the stretch and playing in the river in a pool half way up the stretch.

Half a dozen small fish on a mixture of nymphs and klinkhammers. Late in the afternoon a fish of well over 2 lbs from the Salmon Pool on a size 14 olive klinkhammer.

7 Brown Trout, all over 3/4 lb, the largest 2.5lb... taken on spider patterns and a bead head pheasant tail fished upstream, dead drfit through the deep gutters at the top end of the beat.

Great days fishing, thanks.

Very quiet day. Lots of mayfly, but no hatch or rise throughout the day. Water level very low - below the summer flow mark on the gauge.

No fish caught - 28c temperature!

7 brown trout, 16 black klinkhammer. no real hatch
