My first trip of the 2009 season!

Went down to the river on Saturday night to try my luck. The river is low and the bed is covered in algae which frequently attaches itself to your fly hooks. There is no doubt that the river needs a complete flush out!

I fished first down the bottom of our beat. There are some changes there but nothing too drastic. The night was warm and overcast but I failed to spot any sewin at all. At about 12.00 midnight I went up to the car park pool and tried my luck there but to no avail. So my first night was blank but this was not too unexpected I have to say as the season is still very young!

    Hi Kingfisher,

    Glad to see you back on the river, a drop of rain and hopefully the fish will be in numbers around LLangadog. JJ says there seems to be a good head of fish lower down so here's hoping. I've seen one or two there but as you say its early yet.
