| Ranger's Review: |

|
| Kielder has fished really well this week with a superb rod average of 4.06 fish per angler. |
|
| The humid and warm end to the week boosted the fly life on the water and consequently fish |
| are starting to rise during the evening. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Those fly fishing and practising catch and release on barbless hooks have reported catches |
| of over 20 fish! The best areas have been the Belling and Matthew's Linn. |
|
|
| With the warmer water temperature bait anglers on floating baits have out fished those who prefer |
| to ledger on the bottom. |
