So I made it out at 2 p.m. (much later than I planned but I slept it out!). Much to my delight the river was in great nick. It was at least 1m higher than the last time I was out(about a month ago) and 5ft. is probably closer. There's was a decent current running through the holding pools, with a savage current everywhere else. I used worm all day long. I got a small bite early on but went for him too early and he was gone. He seemed to be small anyway whatever it was. Moments before I was lucky to see an otter bang in the middle of the river, breaching the surface with his catch. He had a nice size fish but was too far away to make out what he had - going by the size I'd say a salmon though. My only catch of the day was a medium sized eel, around 40-45cm. I've never caught or eaten one before so I took him out and will clean and fry him later.
I was very pleased with the conditions and will try and make it out another couple of times during the week.
