Tough fishing in low water and bright conditions. Walked whole beat for 5 fish of varying sizes. Good insect activity but only occasional rises.

Dry sunny, warm, and breeze from east – low water. Hatch of olives – MB/BWO’s. Difficult accessing water (slippery), and difficulty from left bank only! When I managed to present a dry fly to a couple they took, with some big refusals ;-). Later they took on traditional spider team on little pocket water there was! Trout were beauts from 10'-14'.

Dry, sunny, warm, and calm. Low clear water levels. Difficult terrain on upper beat – to say the least. Through-out the day there were two distinct olive hatches. Upper part of beat observed no rising fish - through-out the day. Change tactics and patterns with no success.

A beautiful day for a walk in the country but not for flyfishing. I wouldn’t normally wet a line in these conditions but this is meant to be a fishing holiday, so on went the Factor 30. Miraculously, a few fish were seen rising in the shadier spots and three nice trout (14”,14”13”) were landed on comparadun and Klinkhamer. Shame that a faulty gearbox put paid to my friend’s outing.
