I was fishing on my own and covered the 3 pools suitable for fishing with a fly with no luck. No fish were showing. I particularly enjoyed fishing Lady Alexanders Catch; a most attractive pool.

I caught a half pound trout which I tried to return but it expired when I was removing the hook.

I noticed 2 people fishing, probably for trout, on the opposite bank near Abernant Stream in the morning.

River still high (covering large areas of shingle normally exposed during the summer) and coloured. Trotting with a centre pin all day - only fished the streamier swims at the bottom of the beat (below the croy). Sausage meat and luncheon meat bait. First fish turned out to the largest of the day - 4lbs. Sadly no barbel.

No work had been done on the parking area by the river - all overgrown. No really suitable for regular cars (especially if wet), only 4x4s.

River levels at 0.71 on the Ross gauge. The river was dropping after a bunch of rain a few days before. I decided once I got there I would pre bait a few swims and try and nick a bite as quickly as possible. It took a while to get a bite and my 3rd swim move I finally had a chub. The spot I dropped the most bait into I started fishing at 10:00am and by 10:30 I’d had 2 barbel and 8 chub. The spot was rocking. It dried up fairly quickly tho so I put a bit more bait in and left it for an hour. It wasn’t until 15:00pm that I managed another barbel.

I took my Grandson fishing and although we caught one very nice brown trout of about 12 inches, that was the only fish caught in about 6 hours. Not very exciting for a potential new angler and very expensive at £32.
