Feedback & Reports

Half a dozen touches, bumps, pulls and on/offs mainly in the
Gravel Catch. The day saved by a heroic 4” troutlet that took my perdigon as I was retrieving to re-cast.
Difficult in-the-face wind made good presentation a major challenge.
Saw one rise in Gravel in several hours but moving down to the hut pool for the last hour, a few fish were coming up just before it was time to go.

Three nice trout on the Mayfly. Many more hooked but unable to land. Also, in clear water, trout can take a good look at the fly before deciding that it is artificial, and returning to the bottom of the river. Despite low water, the beat is entirely fishable

Stunning morning. Fish were rising but weren’t terribly interested! Fished with a variety of wets, dries and nymphs. Most rises were close to the dam wall.

Dry fly very hard with wind and rain but lovely beat.

4 fish. 1 proper one!
Difficult conditions windy and wet. Water low. Insects sparse. Tough day.

One of us got 4 euronymphing. Winds up to 56km/h downstream so casting a normal line was tricky! No fish taken. Paths down are quite crumbling so wouldn’t recommend if you need easy access.

Arrived a bit later than expected so just fished the evening for a a 2-3 hours. First time on the Edw and what a gem this beat this turned out to be. Plenty of fish showing in a variety of water, but they were very easily spooked: The slightest attempt to get a cast to them resulted in instant disappearance. Learnt a lot and need to work on my approach, wading stealth, casting skills and general finesse. Caught one perfect small wild brown trout so really happy with that. Will definitely return for another visit. Thank you.
