I had a fish first cast but after that had a wee lull for about half an hour , then it was non stop action for the rest of the day,What fighters they are! I'd say most fish came to nymphs all though many also took the dry,, lost one better the start of the day and broke off on one later on, but it had been a fun though tiring in the heat . Although it did fish fine i would like to see it with a wee bit more water, i will return before the season ends , and maybe a few better fish will be getting there heads down. A few signature trout .

Fun in the Sun
Scorchio today! Had a visit to one of my favourite rivers , i was a bit worried about its level with a the rain of recent but on a arrival the river was it's usual crystal clear self, infact i would say it was pretty low it does though drop very fast.
