A lovely wild fish river. A rarity and a treat. I fished on Sunday 7th June, river coloured and rising. As I came to a pool between sewage works and the farm there was a huge disturbance in the pool and a large otter surfaced gripping a trout which it crunched loudly, saw me and dived under and disappeared. Could have touched it with the 7ft rod. Ended up one each for the otter and me.
