9th May; a warm
and sunny day with a north wind, trout activity was at around zero for most of
the day and the hatches sparse. Low water conditions and clear. The barometer
is dropping like a stone and there is a mackerel sky; there is a front of heavy
rain on the way.
10th May; heavy
rain overnight has put the levels up by three meters and it is very coloured
with flotsam, by the afternoon the whole river is now unfishable. Persistent
rain for the next day or so will keep conditions poor for the next couple of
days.
11th May; the
river has dropped by three feet today but still unfishable. A dry day tomorrow
and until the evening Sunday when there is more of the wet stuff forecast.
