River Report

Despite a fleeting spell of wet weather, rivers have once again dropped back to summer lows. Shortly after the rain, regular rod Charlie Yeoward managed a grilse from Quarry Pool on a one-inch Black and Yellow tube. Trout fishing has perked up this month, as it usually does towards the season's end, and the sea trout are present in good numbers with several being caught both by night and by day on small wets and nymphs. Until we get a serious dose of the wet stuff, salmon fishing will be patchy at best! Our (rain) dancing shoes have all but worn out. Here's to hoping.
