Feedback & Reports

A really lovely day’s fishing despite the near-record temperatures. Water very low for the valley but still lots of deep areas. Tough fishing given the conditions and the lethargy of the trout but a few bites, which were earned the hard way. Glorious beat, even in this heat, and whichever band had arrived at the Studios to record kindly allowed us to refill our water bottles (I hope they weren’t famous enough that I should have recognised them!).
Absolutely stunning stretch of the Morrow, lots of deep water even in a drought/heatwave, some lovely stone “beaches” to set up camp in the shade in. Very much recommended.

Fished the BCAC stretch of the Greta. Water very low. Lost one decent brown trout but otherwise no fish

3 Trout, 6 Grayling

Unfortunately very hot day, and temperature of water was 21 degrees.

No fish caught.
Ledgered for barbel during a six hour session. Weather extremely hot and river very slow, to the point of almost static.
Rain badly needed.
Accommodation at Montgomery House was excellent, as was the breakfasts supplied.

Hard days fishing weather was to hot plenty of fish cruising around but not feeding on a cooler day I think you would have a good few catches

Water very low indeed in places, and clearly very warm with 33 degree air temp. Fish understandably not moving any more than needed but nonetheless we had a few bites, and but for three spat unbarbed hooks might have had a fish or two. Stunning location and given the exceptionally difficult conditions still very nice fishing. Pint at the Bell afterwards proper Ice Cold In Alex remake...
