Rivers Update

Rivers are currently low and clear. Unsurprisingly this warm weather is dropping river levels and as such any thoughts of salmon fishing are, for now, on hold. We could really do with 2-3 inches of rain before we have any serious thoughts of casting salmon flies. Sea trout night fishing continues to be worthwhile however, with fish being caught by most that try for them and plenty of sea trout resident in the pools on the Lyd. Cold nights and the current huge moon are making the fishing trickier, but surface lures are working well and are exciting in the moonlight. Trout fishing has been patchy, and the Tamar is fishing best overall. Nymphs and wets have been most successful, although a few trout are rising sporadically to stoneflies and a few late olives. With the weather looking set for a while we'd better make the most of what has been a good year for sea trout at The Arundell Arms.
