Feedback & Reports

Only fished from 10am-1pm as a crisis at home forced us to leave early. The mayfly were starting to hatch as we were leaving!

Conditions perfect. Overcast with very little wind and the river slightly coloured. Mayfly hatching all day but surprisingly few fish rising. Those that were visible were willing to take a dry fly. A cracking beat with lots of varied water and a beautiful location.

Mayflies about in the afternoon but only a few fish rising, fished nymph below klinkhammer with all fish taking nymph. Caught and lost a few on dry mayfly pattern late afternoon.

Steady trickle hatch of mayfly and fished from 12-3.15. Looked like hatch may have increased in intensity later.. Grey Wulff mayfly dun successful and also small hares ear emerger.

River still a little high and quite coloured, very warm (25 C) and sunny. Good hatch of Mayfly throughout the day (fished from 8am until 3pm) but very few rising fish. Caught one 3" trout parr on a size 18 pheasant tail nymph, one 9" trout and another powerful 12" trout on a Mayfly imitation. Lots of blue damsels brightening up the margins.

In between heavy showers and thunderstorm fish were rising to mayfly.

12 Trout

First time on this stretch of river and an enjoyable day. Some fish rising sporadically, mostly to Mayfly, but most of the fish were taken on nymphs.
