The river is low but the fish have still been biting. Caddis and midges are main items on the menu right now.

The mayfly are still hatching and the fish are taking them. There are some sea trout on the hotel water too. Call us for up to date info!

Another salmon has been caught on the Fox and Hounds water and the sea trout are starting to arrive. It’s getting exciting!

The mayfly are hatching, the sea trout are starting to appear and there are even a few salmon on the Fox and Hounds water. It’s all happening!

Sea trout are starting to be caught on the Taw and so if you’d like a guided sea trout session be sure to get in touch. We offer guiding on a hourly basis and fit it around how long you’d like to fish for.

Are you ready? The mayfly are just starting to appear in small numbers but the hatch is only going to start building and it won’t be long until the fish get “locked on” to them.

We’ve had some much needed rain to freshen the water up and to hopefully send some salmon our way. The dry fly fishing has been outstanding of late with fish rising to olives. Be sure to scan the water and look for the rise!

We’ve had great fun targeting fish rising to olives the last few days. I can’t remember such great early season hatches.

The weather has been either warm or cold so it has made the fishing mixed. That having been said we have been catching some nice trout on dry flies!

We’ve started catching a few more fish on dry flies which has been great news!
