Week ending 27/06/2010

The River is running at summer level, water clarity is good and the water temp is holding at 64 Fahrenheit.

Fishing has been very difficult with low water and high temperatures, the best time to fish the River at the moment is early mornings and late evenings, with good hatches of Olives coming off the water.  There are some cracking Sea Trout in the system, but they’ll be holding in the deeper shaded pools, with your only real chance during the black of night.  The Brown Trout are constantly rising, but stay away from the still water and stick to the runs and glides, Greenwells Spiders, Pheasent Tails nymphs and Silver Invictas are all catching fish at the moment.

We could really do with some rain to freshen up the system and encourage some more silver tourists into the River.
