The rainbow trout lakes have thankfully reduced in temperature a little so the fish are much happier. The Little Bognor lakes provided consistent sport, as did the river. The odd mayfly still hatching on the latter. As usual,  a great variety of flies brought success.

“I visited the river over the weekend in the late evening and found fish rising at Keepers Bridge and Rotherbridge. A stealthy approach, making use of the riverside foliage, good presentation and a realistic imitation of a mayfly brought success. Mayfly were hatching in bursts at dusk. There was no fall of spinners”.
