Thursday morning and as you can see no change on yesterday , the picture below shows a fine Hen Grayling on its way back after falling foul of a dry fly presented by my friend Jim Curry just one of half a dozen he caught , targeting rising fish .

Dark wet morning ! Rain is moving slowly north and hopefully brightening up later , I expect the river to rise again currently the level is good ,

Friday morning and as suspected the heavy rain last night has raised the level once more and the colour is not good , the rain has drifted north and hopefully with a dry day today we`ll see a better picture for the weekend .

The picture above says it all ! Big river once again .
However on a more positive note I was fortunate enough to observe a team from Hull University carrying out an electro fishing survey on one of our Feeder streams yesterday on behalf of the Environment Agency . The survey was carried out on three 50 metre lengths on the stream and the results were extremely encouraging with a total of 70 fish in one 50m section , predominately 0+ to 3+ age group showing very good recruitment in this small beck . Two further becks are to be surveyed and we shall recieve a copy of the results once completed , as you can see the fish were all in good condition .

Once again as a result of another lift during the night the level remains high and the colour is poor .
