A very wet week kept most anglers away from Monday to Thursday. Despite the heavy rain there has been no flooding and the water remains clear and much cooler than this time last year.
The rough conditions certainly didn’t put the larger fish off with a total of 13 fish over 5lb recorded last week.
Vast numbers of damsels are hatching on most days with fish taking nymph and adult.
The evening rise continues to feature hatching buzzers and small sedges.
Fish are well spread with most areas producing fish and with no high temperatures on the horizon the fishing should remain good.
