Posted this on the Rivers Tees Thread earlier, but maybe should have been on here instead

quote=Ant74;261081]Hi WT

We fished almost as far as the waterfalls on Sunday, though I don't think it makes an awful lot of difference where you fish. The key gives you access to the gate that leads from the road to the reservoir to Widdybank farm. Just return it to High Force when you are leaving, you can leave it with security or stick it through the letterbox after hours. You can also park further down near the chapel, though the farmer can be difficult. The competition is on the stretch between Cauldron Snout and High Force, so it's best avoided this weekend.[/quote]

Here are the results from the competition. Simon Robinson caught 30 measurable fish in 3hrs in the morning session, mainly on nymphs to win the competition for the 3rd year running.

Some good anglers there if you take a look.
