Light covering of snow overnight ! Bright cold start .

Friday 09 th April 2021

 This afternoon saw increased fish activity as good hatches of Browns stirred a frenzied surface activity resulting in lots of chances to connect with an overwintered beauty as seen .


March Brown ( Rithrogena germanica ) in the hand , large hatch today 1400 pm resulting in responsive activity resulting in witnessing a hard battle lost with a good fish not seen !!!
Other battles won !


Stunning fish in excellent condition .

Friday morning  0830  and a bright start , and the  river remains settled .



Yesterday I caught up with one of our member during a hatch of Olives and March Browns  which resulted in two fish returned .
