I had a couple of hours spare yesterday afternoon so decide to give this short beat a try.
I was not disappointed at all.
I watched for a few seconds but then my curiosity got the better of me and I went to investigate.
A View of the River Dore, one of the tributaries of the River Monnow
This is what I found trying its hardest to get across the pool with out being eaten.
I knackered the pool right up trying to rescue it but at least it was king enough to pose for the camera.
An unusual find, A slow worm that I found swimming across the pool
The fishing was good and there are plenty of decent Grayling. On the day they were mostly coming to a GB Caddis pupa.
