Friday morning and river level is good with little change on yesterday . The second picture shows a young Roe buck being forced to cross the river following a territorial dispute , the other buck ( out of picture ) had chased it from woodland to the right of the picture .

24th May 2011



River is currently currently falling after peaking once again during the night following yesterdays showers . Level is good and colour is fishable , with the risk of more showers the situation could be reversed .

Monday 23rd May

River level as at 0800 hrs showing evidence of yesterdays showers , stepping stones just visible .
Colour is ok . However the wind is strong and set to get stronger ! Strid Wood will offer respite in places or perhaps an opportunity to try czech nymphing .
