What a lovely day!
Me, Nico and Bryan all got fish. The Newbies and Herman blanked but not in the swimming department.
One fish took me for a nice walk through the rapids where I managed to break a broomstick.
Water is warming up and all but me went wet wading so please keep away of spawning fish and please do not cast at them.
Forgot to add: Visibility was 60cm!

Sorry oom herman forgot his thingy that taketh the pictures.
You had to clean your flies every few casts with some snot of note being landed.
But I found that in the faster flowing water there was less snot and more yellows.
