It felt like December rather than April with ant wind to add to the pain

Fished for 3 hours. No action at all

Another odd sort of day weather wise !!! Cool, with an easterly breeze .....Dire for thr big lakes in the Cwm Elan !! Thr sun put in sn appearance ftom.11 ish today...... Again cool till about two .
The Ithons sitting at a nice level ...0.182 was the last time I looked at it ... Perfect tbh !!@
Dry fly sport was fun between 1:45 and 2:30, with s good flurry of olives between that window. The trout quickly switched on , with splashy activity on most of the decent pools.....
Five trout to the net, another long range released one also, and, one really decent grayling. The trout were the usual stamp, seven to eleven inches, with the fighting fit, quickly released lady, being about 16 or 17 inches ...All, took a dry, three to risers, the remainder, tight at the pool heads, in the creases.....The Grayling certainly put a good bend in my six foot two weght rod, cracking stuff !!!
A fun session here, but a frustrating down stream wind. When it picked up, I packed up, and mooched back across the fields to my truck....A perfect early season dry fly sortie !!!! Lovely job .....

5 Trout, 1 Grayling

Access at the top of the beat was restricted by padlocked access gate- I spoke to Alyson in the office about this.
The beat map shows a clear foot access path from the top going downstream- I could not find it as it appears to be completely overgrown? Somewhat spoiled the days fishing

Llanstephan gauge around 1’5 today, 12.3C and clearing. The Llangoed fish on the weekend raised the hope that there might be a few fish in the beat, but nothing seen, not even a rising trout.

River was high, no fish topping, not even a nibble. Using dry flies and nymphs so called it early and came home. Was easy to book my ticket and will deffo be down again.
Tight lines

Great day, although challenging wind in afternoon and cold all day. All trout caught on nymphs - euronymph. Big olive hatch at 14.00 but only saw two rises all day- must be feeding subsurface. Lovely stretch of water.

11 Trout
