Well tonight i managed to get down in the river at about 20.00 hrs
and there were a few fish raising on beat 2 as a waded up the beat.
I only fished for about 1 hour and caught 3 really good Brownies on a dry LDO. The evening is the best time to fish at the moment.

I met up with John this morning to carry our our second River invertebrate monitoring session
at 11.00 which was very successful, after which we both tackled up to fish beats 6 & 7 John went
to bottom of beat 6 and I fished up beat 7, and very quickly catch my first Brownie of the week on
a LDO dry size 16 there weren't many fish raising up the beat I then managed another Grayling on
the same fly I waded up to the top of beat 7 with nothing else to catch, so I called it a day and met
up with my better half at Hassop for a coffee.

Today my very old friend Rod and David joined me beats 2/3/4 for the afternoon, when we arrived there were a few fish raising we all split up and fished different bit of the river. It wasn't easy
this afternoon that wind was blowing again and the fish don't like it when it's windy ! I managed
just one really good Rainbow at the start of beat 2 and that we it, Rod had a small Brownie also
on beat 2. I think I will start just going in the evening for now on.

Sorry the blog is a BIT LATE but had rather a busy weekend well on Friday my good friend
John joined me on beats 8/9/10 for the day as a guest on the Derbyshire Derwent, we started
at 10.00 in the morning at the bottom of beat 8 and both of us worked our way up the beat very
few raises but no takes before lunch at the Plough which was very good and enjoyable. After
lunch we fished up beat 9 and I had 3 good Rainbow Trout and John had 2 on but lost them. It
wasn't an easy afternoon from a fishing point of view but it was just great to have a day on the
river.
