Good control on your swing of the fly can be so important in higher water, Using the rod to slow the swing is so important combined with one or two big mends in the line.

The Ivy Tree pool in bigger water today.  In this height it makes it easier to cover fish as it brings the fish closer into your bank even with a fairly short line you will cover fish . The two best bits are at the very top of the pool as shown in the bottom picture. And on the bend at the bottom half going into the top of the Rock pool
