Default Rain.

Now that the rivers are up and there is some colour in them, what is the best way to fish them? Flies/approach type of advice.

Head for the higher beats, where the water will drop and clear sooner. Fish the back eddies, where the flow is least strong and food collects, and the heads and tails of the pools, where the water is shallower.

Flies - all the usual suspects but the garden fly is an absolute killer in these conditions.
