Feedback & Reports

Found the river in good condition, fining down nicely after the recent rain. There was a steady hatch and fish rose throughout the day. A stiff downstream wind in the morning led me to fish a team of wets down and across with a heavy GRHE on the point. The lowest field was the most productive, I hooked five and netted three - the biggest a lovely fish just over a pound. Met a few other friendly anglers on the beat but there was plenty of scope for everyone. Definitely worth coming again.

Fish taken on a variety of flies Kilnkhammers, Para Adams, PTN and GRHE. Plenty of fish rising when I arrived at 10am. Missed serval large fish in the 2.5 - 3lb range. Most fish averaging around a 1lb. A good days fishing the only down side was two anglers turning up on the opposite and bank, both of who jumped no more than 100yards in front of me and started fishing!

Rising fish on the slower water at the bottom of the beat all day, save for an hour or two around 5 o'clock. 3 decent trout caught, all around the pound, and about a half dozen on and off. They seemed to be keen on an Imperial in size 14 or 16 (when I lost all my 14's)! Didn't make contact with any small fish and a much bigger one straightened out what was a very weak hook! Great fun, seem to be lots of trout here. Brook Dun, Olive Upright and increasingly Yellow Mays about.

Nice spot, some movements, regretly I had to return very quickly to Northampton. I'll be back with more time.
Several rises, some little trout were rising to a dry fly.
Very nice spot, easy to find the park. By the way the box for the vouchers is very helpfull (don't pick up).

A fine days fishing with trout rising to LDOs, a good hatch of March Browns was largely ignored along with the odd late Grannom. Most fish were taken on Olive F fly, 2 to Cock winged dun and one to a grannom pupa.

Very good water conditions. Active olive hatches all day. 5 brown trout on Adams size 14, one on black spider size 16 and two on gold head HE nymphs sizes 16 and 14. All returned.

An excellent day's fishing at this picturesque beat. The slower flowing stretches were unproductive, but casting into faster water brought four plump trout to the net, hard-fighting fish in the 9 - 10 inch range. Three fell to a small goldhead nymph, the fourth to a Coachman, all fished downstream wet fly. A couple of other fish took but escaped the net. It seems that Spring is here at last!
