Nice day float fishing corn. Loads of small roach and a couple of bream about 2lbs.

A nicely varied stretch of water with lots of fishy features. 5 minutes from the A road lay-by to either bottom end or midway access. Work your way around, over or under the barb wire that’s attached to most gates and stiles.
Tried nymphs and spiders first couple of hours for no takes until a very quick rise in fast water prompted the dry fly option. Stuck with dry for the remaining 5 hours.
Insects in good numbers above the river all day. Plenty of very quick takes on cdc parachute, small klink most missed but 4 landed , best a lively one pounder, the quick riser mentioned earlier.

A truly delightful day with glorious weather and no wind. Surprisingly, we did not see any other anglers on the water.

In the morning we found a gentle long glide where trout were rising feeding on minute olive emergers. Stealth, extra long leaders and microscopic flies were a must. We managed to tempt a couple of fish after numerous casts.

We changed tactics in the afternoon looking for rises in the more shaded areas, underneath overhanging trees on the opposite bank. It required patience and more challenging casts but our efforts were rewarded adding 5 more fish to the tally. Also managed to capture the hatching process of a Large Brook Dun which was fascinating.

A memorable day when nymphs were intentionally left behind. As a famous fishing writer once said...it is not how many fish you catch, but how you catch them. Thank you WUF. We will be back again.
