112 rods caught a total of 492 trout for a rod average of 4.39

Nice steady sport is perhaps the best way to describe the last week, that said its fair to say its that time of year when we need to apply ourselves just a little more and on the whole do things a little ‘better’………………

73 rods caught 383 trout for a rod average of 5.24.

Firstly my apologies for a few less updates over the last week or so as I’ve been catching up on some annual leave.
