Registering for the 10 free opening days will take place at Thyme & Plaice and from the Belgrave Arms Hotel from today (Tuesday 10th). Both will be open late to cater for the big influx of anglers.  

I will have a large selection of killer flies onboard this year as the shop is up for sale, look out for the Black Hilux with Loop on the back around the Bridge Hotel car park, but if I'm fishing, I'm fishing! I'll also have maxima 15, 18 & 20lbs + Sinking poly-tips and lines. I look forward to seeing you there But I won't be around for long as I have plans to catch the first fish!!

The river is looking very nice and there will definitely be fresh fish in the system due to the mild winter so far. The water is clear and fairly low so grab a Monkey tube, a Willie Gunn and a sinking tip and get stuck in!

Tight lines to all
