Brief description of the session & remarks:...I?ve not fished this river before so it was a recie trip as well as a fishing trip. 1st couple of hours upstream not a touch, crossed a large feeder stream after which the main river became much smaller. Only just made it back across the feeder steam, which was coming up very fast. Last couple of hours down river started to get a few plucks and picked up the small brownie on a Black Pennel right under rod tip while retrieving line. Lost quite a few flys due low trees and gusty wind. Nice river enjoyable session even though it did rain all the time, I?ll be back.
