Fishing trip to the River Torridge, North Devon!

Spent 4 days fishing on the River Torridge last week with Rodney Byles and my brother-in-law John Banner! The water was almost perfect level most of the time - up about 450 mm - and with varying degrees of clarity! I got a lovely salmon of about 7 lb on Brimblecombe on the first day and then Rod lost a nice salmon on Beam on the Saturday! John had a number of good pulls but failed to connect! The weather was pretty good and we all enjoyed the trip. The Half Moon Inn at Sheepwash where we stayed looked after us very well and their breakfast was as good as you will get anywhere! We are hoping to repeat the trip every spring from now on - God willing!
