After weeks of the river being so low finally in the past couple of weeks saw some fresh water in the river!
A week or so ago I fished the river after a days persistent rain and it was high and coloured. Despite this the fish were still actively rising and feeding off the surface.

Grayling city and THAT trout
Following a recent trip to the river with Lisa Isles, last Sunday Lisa and I returned to the river Calder for more fishing! with near enough no rain since our last outing the river was still very low.
we were fishing in Copley starting by Copley village and working our way back up the river. upon our arrival I was shocked to see no other anglers out as Copley seems to be a hot spot with the fly anglers. we set our rods up, setting up with the duo, a nymph with a dry fly on the dropper. just before we started it decided to rain but only a short shower, after it passes it was time to get down to business.
