Fished from 16.00 to 19.00. Nice weather, cloudy and sunny. Began at bottom of beat with usual para-adams. Lots of rises from tiny trout, 5 caught, 3/4 ins. ( not included in return). Noticed a few mayfly so put on a medium sized (14) grey wolf. ImmedIate effect as I got to the slightly slower pools about 200 yards up the beat. Missed several good fish but caught two x 10 ins and one lovely fish at 14 ins. Finished just beyond the end of the first field.

Nothing doing, principally because I became aware that there was a bull in the field and thought it best to beat a retreat.

Fish caught on emerger patterns A few mayfly about, but fish not rising to them

Sun beating down, river very low, tons and tons of insects, fish rising but all close to the banks or other cover and unenthusiastic. Hard going , managed 11 small fish the biggest being 9" but could not raise any that were bigger and I know they are there. All to size 18 dry flies..Adams, Greenwells, Tupps, Iron Blues, and some nymphs just under the surface. Wonderful to watch a Kingfisher deal with its meal just 20 feet from me and to return several times to the same spot.
Thanks WUF for the opportunity to fish such lovely places!

A beautiful warm, sunny, peaceful day. River was surprisingly low. There were clouds of flies over the water, including LDO's, but few fish rising. Those that were, I suspect, were very small.
Caught six trout, from 6 - 10 inches. Given the conditions, it was a disappointing result, but a nice day anyway.

A plea from the landowner: if you cross over the bridge to park, do not park on the left as that is a maneuvering bay for lorries and farm vehicles crossing the bridge. He keeps meaning to put up a " No parking" sign.

Unfortunately work got in the way and I wasn't able to fish.
