Lost a fish in Bridge pool

First time fishing the beat. Didn't catch but great fun getting to know the pools.

A nice day out bouncing through the pools, worked hard covering all pools, not a touch only the odd little pull from trout.

nothing caught

Lovely day out in great conditions, but couldn’t find a salmon…plenty of greedy wbt about.

Probably still a bit high in the morning but the level dropped and clarity improved for a fly later. Different day. Same tactics. Same result. No salmon but I hooked a fish spinning at the bottom of the beat early evening which didn’t stick. Possible salmon or maybe a big trout.

Clarity returning after a few rainless days. Made two passes through Gravel Catch with spinner and then flies. Several takes from trout as the fly swung to shallower water.
Switched to trout rod for an early afternoon rise. One on cdc shuttlecock.

Started at 9.30 and finished in biblical rain just before 7.00. I was quite hopeful when I arrived and saw the river, highish water at 2’5 but with a nice tinge and maybe 7’-8’ visibility. Fished most of the pools multiple times with heavy tubes and T14, spinning them after as well, but no salmon seen.
I also had a look at the hut and it doesn’t appear that there have been any more unwelcome visitors after the reported break in. Door still needs a lock though.
A long hard day but nice to be out searching for silver again.
