FREE DRINK!Happy New Season to you all.... A thirsty angler suggested there could be a prize for the first spring fish so.... Lance Nicholson are putting up a very special prize indeed.... A BOTTLE OF WHISKY to the angler who catches (with proof) the first River Exe spring salmon either on Dulverton Angling Association or Fish The Exe water above Tiverton. So check those lines and flies etc, and get your waders wet! All the best. James and Pat No Comments

ExtensionSorry for the lack of postings over the last 2 weeks. James has been on holiday so we have been too busy with the start of the shooting season and processing all the salmon extension applications. Some of the early permissions we issued state that only a single barbless fly can be used. This has since changed to any size single, or doubles size 12 or smaller. All barbless/debarbed of course.There were 2 salmon hooked at Cove on Monday, the biggest about 36" long, (about 15lbs?) and he saw several fish swim up river past him. Its raining to freshen the river so make the most of it. Good luck Patrick No Comments

CoveSeveral fish seen at Cove yesterday, up to double figures, but they have become potted and wouldn't take anything. I think we need a fresh dollop of rain to get the fishing going again.Fingers crossed Patrick No Comments

Trout fishing goodNo more Salmon to report from the Barle I'm afraid - click below if you know different!! Looks like there's still some fresh grilse in the Exe... Try using very small doubles, Sz 14 silver stoats or Stoats Tails. OK, We'll see if we can start a bit of a poll: Question: What is your best, most successful, Salmon Fly? View Comments (3)

Levels dropping...butKeep it up guys, there are still fish in the Exe so must be some in the Barle somewhere... No rain forecast for the near future, unfortunately, so make the most of what we've got today. Also, please do let us know of any good Trout or Grayling caught - The Salmon is not the only fish in the river! View Comments (5)
