Lovely evening but the river appeared devoid of fish. Then at about 9pm a couple of fish started rising. Had 1 on a stack winged olive and bumped another. Nice fish of about 12oz.

River quite high, with a fair bit of colour. Wading was quite challenging at this height, and definitely hindered our opportunities; however, there were many good rises after lunch, esp. around 150 mtrs. above the bridge, but most were just out of reach. Saw at least 8 salmon show, most in the first stretch above the bridge. Barry, the owner, was very informative and helpful with advice. No fish caught.

Fishing with fly. Flies used - weighted nymphs, buzzers, small hares ears.

River condition - not too high but good flow, water very clear. Cold wind with not many flying insects showing.

As usual this beat produced a good quantity of trout, sizes ranging between 8oz and 2lb 8oz. Both dries and nymphs took fish. Best flies were Adams, CDC's, Hares Ears.
A warm and mostly sunny day saw good numbers of large olives hatching on and off throughout the day with some very large ones coming off in late afternoon.
The moderately fast water seemed to produce the most fish.
An excellent day.

Lovely warm weather but very little moving (4pm To 8pm). Missed a couple of rises to Klinkhammers and Hawthorns.

Fished 2-4.30, nice to see some fish rising at last on the Arrow. 2 at 9 inches on GBGRHE and 2 larger fish at 10 and 12 inches on dry Olive Klinkhammer.

Arrived at lunch time and fished the afternoon. Caught one very good fish around 2 pounds on a dry F Fly and one smaller fish on a nymph.

River clear and low, didn't see a fish all day.

A stunning day to be on the river. 4 fish caught all taken on a rusty coloured klinkhammer. Stalked on fish for nearly and hour who was constantly sipping off the surface. After several drifts and several fly changes finally hooked up only to see it bolt down stream and take me right down to the backing, 5mins later was drawing him over the net only for the hook to pull out about 2 feet short of the net!!! I reckon he was pushing 4lb or so.

Fished for a few hours on Sunday morning from about 8am to midday. Quite a cold morning and the river was still carrying a good amount of water. It was a tough session - things only got going with a decent olive hatch from 11am onwards when the sun came out. 4 wild browns and a few others lost on klinkhammer & nymph, nothing over 8".
