4. Spinning in low water before 1pm is not allowed, and can only be considered where an angler cannot fish with a fly by reason of genuine physical inability to handle a fly rod (very young, very old or infirmity). In such circumstances, it is the responsibility of the head boatmen to liaise with each other to ensure the other side is aware in advance of exceptional use of spinning, and where pools are shared, spinning should only happen after the other side has had a chance to fish the pool with a fly.
