Catches.
No fish were caught today because the river was in a high dirty flood.
Catch for September so far is 25 & 393 for the season to date.
Prospects.
The river will be spinnable
tomorrow in high water spots.
This flood should bring in the run of larger autumn fish so the prospects of sport in the coming week should be excellent.
