11th june ,dovedale,muddy water blue's

arrived at dovedale with high hopes with micks
report the afternoon before only to be greeted
with a muddy coloured dove .a few mayfly still
skittering about but most of them floating on
downstream to do their buisness .the ducks were
having a mayfly feast skewing from bank to bank
in search of the smorgasbord on offer with a few
attracted to my mayfly .

met neil h off the forums who reported catching
a few on nymphs which to say i had been fishing
for a couple of hours with nothing to show for
my hard endeavours impressed me no end.

did spot some well developing blackthorn bushes
which meens the sloe's will be a success this year
after last years poor harvest.
for any fellow forager there is some nice gooseberry's
growing just before the boards.

met victor again who was fishing with a mate
who like myself struggled with the conditions.
hope the dove clears soon giving us one last
dance with the mays.
