A very good week with very pleasant weather, no rain, and some cool mornings due to the southwest winds.
Because of these conditions, the river level dropped, so some pools had little current. Overall, the fishing was very good with many fish seen all over the river.
Significant rain is expected next week, so we hope the river will return to its usual characteristics for this time of year.
