DROPPING

The Eden is slowly dropping but it still 4-6" up on its usual level and beer coloured at KS. I would expect it to be higher downstream. It will be fishable in places though.

Horrible wet and windy day. You will have to go to work !!

Plus the river is up and coloured and still rising.

Thursday, March 25, 2010

UP AND DOWN

There has been even more rain overnight but the Eden is running ok with a slight beer colour to it. But it may be slightly higher downstream of KS and the level may change either way as the day progresses.
The weather at the min overcast with spits and spots.

Thursday, August 27, 2009

IN WITH A CHANCE?

Apologies from Steve & myself for yesterdays failure - communication breakdown.

Although the river came up yesterday there's been no rain since yesterday morning. The river should be starting to drop back.

The upper reaches, at least, should be fishable.

Friday, July 31, 2009

GOOD 4 ONCE

Get going, the conditions are good and the weather is dry with sunny spells.

Thursday, July 30, 2009

STARTING TO DROP

The river is starting to drop following all of the recent rain, although more rain has been forecast.

Wednesday, July 29, 2009

Have you considered taking up kayaking ?? Or ark building ??

Tuesday, July 28, 2009

UP AGAIN

The Eden came up again yesterday and is still up now to a level to high for fly fishing.

The weather is showery and breezy.

Monday, July 27, 2009

REASONABLE CONDITIONS

It's raining again but at the moment the water level is ok and it is running clear.

Sunday, July 26, 2009

GOOD CONDITIONS

The river conditions are good at the moment but there has been a fair bit of rain overnight and at some point it is going to find it's way into the Eden and increase the level, plus there is more rain on the way.

It's your choice.

Saturday, July 25, 2009

DROPPING SLOWLY

The Eden is fishable today in areas and the water has a slight tinge of colour in it.

The weather is dry and sunny.

Thursday, July 23, 2009

More heavy over night rain has brought the river back up again, although it appears to be dropping slightly at the moment. There have been several heavy showers this morning so it may well creep back up again.

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

MORE RAIN

The River is up again and is unfishable with fly in most areas.

The weather is dry/wet/sunny/windy, Pick any of those in any order and that is the weather.

The weather is dry with sunny spells.

Sunday, July 19, 2009

STILL DROPPING

The level is still not down and at the moment the Eden is running a beer colour and I think in most places downstream of Kirkby will be a bit higher, so finding a good spot may be difficult, but possible.

The weather is dry and overcast.

Saturday, July 18, 2009

NO GOOD

The Eden valley has had a fair bit of rain in the last few days which brought the Eden up very high yesterday and it is still on it's way down now.

The weather is dry and overcast at the moment !!

Friday, July 17, 2009

STILL HIGH

Loads more rain has fallen overnight, so i think the Eden will start coming up again in the next couple of hours.

The weather is crap .

Thursday, July 16, 2009

SAME AGAIN

The water just keeps coming and leaving the river a bit high for fishing with a fly, you may find spots but it will be more difficult.

Wednesday, July 15, 2009

STILL UP

There has been plenty more rain and the river is up and down all the time.

At the moment it is not at a good level for fly fishing, but worming or spinning should be good at this level.

Tuesday, July 14, 2009

UP AND COLOURED

There has been a fair bit of rain recently and as a consequence the Eden is up about a foot on the norm and is quite dirty and i think it will be even higher further downstream.

Not good fly fishing conditions.

Monday, July 13, 2009

DROPPING

The Eden is at a fishable height, but slightly coloured and may be a bit higher downstream near musgrave and warcop.

The weather is dry and overcast at the min.

Sunday, July 12, 2009

RISING AT THE MOMENT

The heavy rain last night is finding it's way into the Eden and it is rising at the moment, but it is fishable. How high it will go is your guess.

Weather is forecast to be showery again.

Monday, July 06, 2009

BETTER CONDITIONS

All the heavy showers we have had have found there way in the river and it has come up 4 to 5 inches to a good height with a tinge of colour in it.
