Pumphouse Pool - River Dee

Had a wonder down to the Pumphouse Pool on the River Dee during my lunch hour yesterday. The water is getting low but still not quite low enough to stop the Springers running over the shingle at the top of the pool. Not far away though. Not sure if the rain forecast next week will lift the river. Shall have to wait and see.

There was a big hatch of flies about 1pm, March Browns I think and the sea trout kelts and finnock were feeding readily on them. You could see them with polaroid glasses on from the viewing platform at the Pumphouse. I managed to get some action on video but you can't quite make out the fish under the surface. Here is the video I put together today of the pool from top to bottom.
