Very quiet day. Lots of mayfly, but no hatch or rise throughout the day. Water level very low - below the summer flow mark on the gauge.

Had a great day at Penpont. Arrived about 10am to good weather conditions. Started at the bottom with some nymphs but soon fish were rising so changed to the dry.
Had 15-20 takes, 4-5 hook ups, 3 snap offs but amazingly, zero to hand!!!! --- Just not quick enough for those turbocharged Penpont brownies....
This is a great beat with plenty of variety, I will hopefully be back soon.

1 WBT to the net, around 1lb. Taken on #16 parachute adams. Fished the duo most of the day in the rougher water. Missed plenty of takes. Hooked up with a very sizeable specimen at the lower end of the beat, which took off upstream and bent my hook out of shape as it freed itself. Good day and plenty of fly life - well worth a visit.

Lovely beat but cold downstream wind made fishing difficult. A few fish rising when the sun came out. Caught (& returned) one 16 inch trout, on a march brown.

Coldish day with a nagging NE breeze and showers didn't do much to encourage the hatches. However there was some sun and this seemed to stimulate insect activity periodically. Various upwinged species were on the move, including LDOs and small mayfly. Water was clear and cold.
Fished as well as I could have expected given the conditions. Netted 3 browns including a superb 2lb specimen. 2 fish took a tungsten PTN, the other a parachute Adams. All fish in prime condition and safely returned

Blank day; river clearing after heavy rainfall 36 hours before. Cold northerly wind though fine and sunny day. Good fly hatch and very occasional small fish rising. No immitation fly came close to working! Lovely stretch of river.
