Tuesday came and went in a flurry of rain and misdirected expectation. 2 fish fell to the rods, a 8 pound reddish fish to David and a 4 pound grilse to myself. Not great by any stretch of the imagination but T least it’s fish.
The river is sectioned off into 3 big beats each about 2 miles long. Tuesday was the lower beat which held some great runs and pools, whereas on Monday it was the middle beat which to be fair only had a couple of real pools when the water is so low.
On Tuesday however the rain started to come and the river rose about 4 inches. Ordinarily that should get the fish running, and we saw a a few – but they weren’t exactly obliging. Today however (I am writing this early Wednesday morning) it is raining hard and therefore suits the top beat which we are fishing today.
So far 2 days and 2 fish.
