River at 0.9m and clear . Fished the top two pools on caravan side late afternoon. Looked very promising. Will try today before the rains come .

Water level a bit too high but was worth a go. Stuck to fc and just fished the crib area by the hut. Nothing caught or seen except one follow from a largish pike.

Struggled today 1 trout on Toby. overpriced , considering most of the day was ruined by paddle boarders falling/jumping in who no doubt don't pay the very high charges plus fishing passport cut for doing nothing that a ticket machine can't do roads close to unusable. All in all taking the p**s

Absolutely terrible day 20 people fishing and only 2 caught out of the 20 not sure when was stocked last but it needs to be stocked once a week instead of once a fortnight we are basically pay for 1 the birds to eat and 2 for the poachers that go there through the night bn fishing this reservoir for over 12 years and last two years its been a joke

Lovely day’s fishing on a beat which rarely disappoints. 12 fish to 18” with many in the 12-14” range, on a mixture of dries and nymphs. Deer Hair Emerger, Para Adams and Copper John all took fish.

1 accidental out of season Grayling quicky returned, caught a on a size 14 Wulff fly . Another hooked but not landed and 3 or 4 more takes missed. Glorious day on the water

Complete cloud cover,12 degrees and a down stream wind. Not a good start to my season! The only trout seen decided to take the black ptn on the dropper just as the point fly lodged itself on a rock at the bottom of the river. It thrashed about in a buttery yellow sort of way then threw the hook and swam off! Ah well next time....
