“A productive and sporting week on the lakes, with fish coming to a great variety of flies, over 20 different flies were recorded on the returns sheets.
The river is still settling after recent flooding and will soon be back to normal levels for the time of year. Trout have been seen rising but none have been caught yet. The first invertebrate survey of the year took place on the Beat D riffle, showing a healthy representation of underwater life. Olive, damsel and mayfly nymphs, were all present, with stone clingers and shrimps in very large numbers.
200 alder saplings were planted to help stabilise the river banks and to provide shade.” – Andrew Thompson
