Box Brook - 11-12/05/2010

The fair weather continued and I couldn’t resist two more evenings fishing after work. I had recently got my membership for a stretch of the Box Brook, a lovely limestone river not far from Bath which I was looking forward to fishing. The river was running low and clear and from the road bridge I could see a number of Trout and Grayling. The occasional splashy rise from a small Brown Trout added to the excitement and I couldn’t wait to start. The first evening was not hugely successful; I think I only managed one beautifully marked small Brown Trout but felt that I was beginning to get the hang of how to fish the type of river. It certainly helps to be as stealthy as possible as these fish are very spooky. The next evening I went back feeling more confident and it turned out to be a wonderful evening. I think I caught around 6 feisty small Brown Trout and one of season Grayling with another lost. A number of trout were caught on the dry fly providing exhilarating action, they were all small but they certainly fight hard! The river really is delightful and I couldn’t wait to go back.
