Weather: Sunny/Overcast at times
Crew: Dave, Easty
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: - Fly - Royal Stimulator #12, Copper John Nymph, Spinners - 7g Celta, Rapala CD5 Brown Trout
Berley: None
Catch: 7 Rainbows
Report: Action was consistent, though fish had no interest in spinners. Easty wasn't getting much love with the fly rig early on, but finally managed to land one and hook another - his first wild rainbow on fly. Landed an absolute beauty just upstream of the bridge, right where a massive tree branch had fallen into the water about 20 mins earlier. Would have killed us! All except one fish took the nymph. The one that took the dry absolutely smashed it. Thanks to Easty's car for getting us up there and back, despite being in a world of pain. All fish released
