ROAD CLOSURES AT MUSGRAVE & EASTFIELD BRIDGES

A quick heads up if you're planning on fishing at the start of the season.

According to this weeks Herald, Cumbria County Council are planning on closing the road at Musgrave Bridge on Wednesday 21st March and at Eastfield Bridge on Thursday 22nd of March (both between 9:30am & 3pm) in order to carry out bridge inspections.  This shouldn't stop you fishing but there will be diversions in place.

Hope that's useful,

John

Mobile Phone Blog

We now have a mobile phone version of this blog. From now on when you view the blog on your mobile you will see a streamlined version of the blog more suited to mobiles. Tight lines.

GOOD CONDITIONS

Have a look at the live feed, tells you more than I can.

The weather is dry and overcast.

VERY NICE START

Its a cool but very nice morning. Blue sky and no rain, plus the river is spot on.

PRETTY GOOD

The river is still dropping off and a bit coloured but is fishable, it may be a bit higher downstream of the becks though.
At the moment the weather is good with BLUE SKY present.
