Difficult day. No fish moving. Water low and clear. Wading treacherous due to rocks being very slippery. Best fish 2lb grayling on emerger plus 2 out of season trout on nymphs.

2 Trout, 1 Grayling

Late return - a fourth salmon for the day and second of the day for Warren Heath at last light on Saturday - 14 1/2 lb on small double (size 14).

Poor day. 4 rods, 2 fish, very hard.

1 Barbel, 1 Chub

River looked OK but may have been a bit low and clear for the Barbel as we struggled to find them. Fished from dawn until dark in a number of swims along the full length of the beat and managed a total of four Barbel and three big Chubb between us. Pellet fished with Feeder or lead was our method, feeding with hemp and pellet. Beautiful scenery but some of the banks are steep and dangerous in the wet. Good access if you have a 4 wheel drive, you need to be fit if you don't and take a torch for the walk back. Stan was very helpful and bless him for putting in the stone for parking on in the field. Many Thanks to W&U for access to our favorite river.

7lb Cock Salmon caught by Mrs Mary Bradbury(43)on a Copperhead Bug (size 14), 4 weight fly rod and 5lb tippet.
Mary caught one last year too in similar circumstances but it was out of season!
Other fish were showing, one of which looked quite fresh.
River a nice height, 12 inches off the top of the Rock.

Inspired by success of MP yesterday I freed up some time and was able to grab 4hrs on the beat in the afternoon. River about 1ft and looking spot on. The residents were splashing in the Vanstone but not playing ball and I saw saw a running fish above the stone just as I started fishing the Maddox. Went upstream and just off the spine in the tail of the Dog Hole the #8 Bann special shrimp was taken solidly by a 11-12lb hen fish that had been in the river a month or so....pewter specked with rose. She gave a good scrap in the fast water. Island felt good and the 2 fish that showed as I was fishing it served to heighten the anticipation, but no further action, and I packed up as the light faded and the rain set in.
