It has been a hard week with only 27 fish for the week

The fish are there, but are very reluctant to take. I think every different way of presenting a fly has been used, along with every pattern invented. Small flies in the fastest water have caught fish, but conversely a very large Red Snelda fished deep, picked up a couple of good fish.

We are starting to see a number of fish waiting in the estuary to run the river. Given some fresh water we will have some good ort, but as things stand we will stuggle.
