Still struggling away in river 3 at the moment which I havn’t been on enough lately to know where the fish are holding. Hooked 6 landing 5 of which 3 were small ones under 2 pounds n a quick half hour fish in section 2 and the other 3 consisted of one rainbow around 3 pounds, another around 5, and a brown around 4.5. Only fished for 2 - 3 hours in total so not too bad all things considered however this river is still far from its best. Am guessing the fish may be further down or further up seeking optimum oxygen or temperature range - havn’t cracked the code yet but still working on it. Will fish lower tomorrow and then lower and higher on Friday attempting to locate the main population. Am aware of one abnormally large congregation in a large pool further down and havn’t yet explored recently above this pool to see if they are mainly in this low section. Fish today were mainly on hoffmans flashback pt but a couple on size 10 h & c.
