7 chub, 9 barbel. Found access tricky in places.

Great fishery, Access was the best it could be car parked next to the river.
My wife and I had a great day, we managed to catch over thirty chub with several over 3 pounds and the biggest at 4 pounds 6 ounces, also one small barbel.
Thanks for a super day, Julie + Keith Horsley

1 grayling caught on Czech nymph. About 20 cms long. In good condition. Returned carefully to the water. Good fly life but little evidence of fish. Very few rises seen. Impossible to tempt those fish that were rising with dry fly.

Another fabulous day on this superb bit of water. Fished afternoon and evening. 8 barbel and lost count of the chub. Long trotting with corn and touch ledgered spam did the trick. Don as welcoming and helpful as ever. Thanks.

5 x Trout 8"- 9". 1 x Grayling 10".

5 x trout 8-9 inches, 1 x grayling 10 inches, small Klinkhammer and a Hare's Ear. Pretty and peaceful as ever. This was a dry fly afternoon, but must make a note to search those deep holes with heavy nymphs for grayling - something to do in September?

Fished from early 0630 until 1900. I saw so many salmon in this beat that I lost count of sighting. These were both resident and travellers, I think about 20 different salmon mainly on the croys and in front of the house.
Tried everything I could think of to no good end. Don let me fish down through the "Run" last thing but without result in respect of salmon.
Final result; Salmon nil, Shad 1 about 2lb, Pike 1 about 18lb on a Mepps, Brown Trout 1 about 1 1/2lb.
Does anyone want to buy any Salmon kit? Think I'll go back to barbel.

River very low with a lot of weed and slime. Trout very wary, so pleased to catch and return 4 up to 9", as well as missing many. On a small dry olive. Lovely stretch of water but it needs rain!

8 chub and 4 barbel between the 2 rods.

Four of us had a great day, caught upwards of thirty WBT interspersed with salmon parr. Good water and plenty of rising fish-took small klinkhammers and a little black wet pattern of my own. Fished nearly all of the beat, just as it said in the passport-classic mountain stream stuff. I fell in [the classic wet sit down on a sloping river bed made of wet slate slabs.....] early on at the bottom but it did not dampen the day.
