Feedback & Reports

River levels were about right with good colour. Surprisingly not a sniff. Did see an otter though.

This is commando fishing fighting with the vegetation but fun none the less.

1 Trout, 1 Grayling

The river was is surprisingly good condition when you consider the storm we had on Sunday night. Although, unfortunately it didn't fish that well with just one take all day during the driving afternoon rain. The fish took a gold head olive and slipped the hook after just a few seconds but the surroundings and wildlife more than made up for the poor weather and nil catch return.

Was in the water for 11.30 and not a touch for an hour then for 3 hours was some quality nymphing. All fish taken in pacey water with trout to 14 inches and grayling to a huge 18+ inches which has given me a p.b. Most of the grayling caught were big 14-16 inches but this one fish was a belter. All fish today were released safely and had to remove a barbed hook from one of the grayling.
Nothing rising to the ldo's that were trickling off during the outbreaks of sunshine.All taking 3mm black tungsten beaded olive nymph size 14. Also a small flurry of grannoms but not many.

9 Trout, 15 Grayling

River extremely clear but cold bright sunshine, small hatch of Olive's mid day and a good hatch of caddies In afternoon but no fish responded hence we fished with nymph !! [ Czech style] all fish were caught in deep pockets. Superb day great location hope to come back soon. Also was pleased to see Dippers, Kingfisher, Pochard, Mallard, Teal & Manderin

Had a few hours nymphing today for the grayling water still quite pacey bottom of the beat but once up by the holiday cottage was much steadier. Out of the grayling 4 were about 5 inches the rest between 14 -18 inches . fish switched on between 2-3pm and then again about 4pm though most came between 2-3pm.. fished duo tungsten beads with a 3.5mm copper bead on point and a 3mm pink bead on dropper all bar two taking the point, the two taking the dropper on the rise..

Weather was cold early on but warmed a little in the sporadic sunshine, which made for a very pleasant day on the high but fish-able Lugg. Two Grayling 9" and a small 5" fish and a 9" Trout all in the middle of the day on grhe nymphs. It was good to be out, as October was our last outing, enjoying our beautiful countryside.

1 Trout, 2 Grayling

A good day's fishing with the grayling taking almost without exception the Czech nymph on the point. Largest fish about 19 inches with some tiddlers happy to take the size 10 fly.

This beat was fished by a member of the Grayling Society on this occasion.

A nice quiet stretch of river which was running clear. Nothing rising so nymphing was the way forward. This tempted two decent grayling, the largest about 1lb, three wannabee grayling and two brown trout. Not yet managing to make contact with shoaling fish but a good day out all the same.
