I've fished the entire river twice, once in high water and once low. The first time the water was high and I think I got 3, no great size. The second time I caught more but again, no great size.

I've fished it a couple of times, once with lots of water and once when the water was low. It's an interesting place to fish as in parts it almost turns into a loch itself. That said, while there was enough happening to keep me entertained the fish tended to be quite small.
