Friday 17 May 2013


Thursday, 16th May 2013 - Fished for a few hours as showers increased and the water dirtied up and rose. The water level and clarity was just about perfect when the showers came and obviously been heavy upstream earlier given the increased colour and sediment induced turbidity. No luck.

Salmon fishing appears to be very water level and clarity dependent.

Had a quick look at Woodstream and witnessed a grey dun hatch with trout rising
