Back to one of my old favourites !!!! Parked up at ten and tackled up ... did notice a few olives on the go from the off so on with an eighteen Parachute Adams see how the mop flops !!!

Good fun from the off ...... stealth required here like at the Whittern ... but careful presentation had me five this morning . I only fished up to the weir... water low but trout are looking up !!! Sizes this morning the usual stamp , between eight and ten inches .... lovely splashy takes too ... I did miss three corkers too !!ohh well thats life ....

The huge tree down across the river half way between the bridge and the weir could do with either a walk way around it now or some other solution .... I'm nimble but it's still dam hard work to negotiate .... maybe thats why it isn't as popular this year !!! Who knows .....

Anyway , still a cracking three hours and actually some good sport !! Stayed on the same Para Adams all the way up to the weir ..... lovely job .. on the walk back down it appears the field is crops this year and not those feisty black Aberdeen Angus.... that's a plus factor.... a fun morning back here soon !!

River very low. Overwise conditions were good - lots of fly life hatching in lower part of the beat. But not a single fish or rise seen in 3hrs

Although we didn't catch anything, we had a great day.
I did hook into a small brown trout, but he shook the hook off before I got the net to him.
A beautiful place for fishing

Fished through beats 4, 5 and 6 but no sign of a salmon in the water. Very little flow to help move the fly in any event.
Two trout to the net and returned.
