Feedback & Reports

River was high but just fishable at last for a few hours before the Edw started coming in a grey and all rising once again! A few trout to the heavy line and tube. Many thanks all for arranging access.

A welcome return to this gentle and productive beat. Weather slightly better then yesterday but did turn cold and windy at mid day when again had to finish early and seek shelter in the pub at Builth Wells. A size 12 dark green nymph took the fancy of two Trout - 8/10 inches. Water high but not too high and not too coloured. Cold down again wind spoilt the day.

Beautiful water . 0 salmon caught or seen . Almost perfect hight and conditions .

Water high following heavy rain a couple of days earlier, although water running quite clear.

No fish this time, but a delightful beat and I will definitely return later in the season.

Lovely day on the river trotting with mixed maggots. Caught 8 Grayling and 1 OOS Brown. Next time will try Euro Nymphing.

1 Trout, 8 Grayling

Fantastic day trotting maggots plus 1 OOS brown on the fly. Eighteen fish caught between two of us. Sixteen grayling and two OOS browns. Llanstephan gauge on 2ft.

1 Trout, 7 Grayling

10 x grayling 6-16 inches, 1 x chub 4.25 pounds, 1 x out of season trout 12 inches. 2ft 6 inches plus was showing on the Llanstephan gauge with a tendency to rise. It was at least warm. No chance of wading, so trotting a slack from the bank had to be the method.

10 Grayling, 1 Chub

Two Grayling from the dropoff at the tail of Lady Alexanders. Took the middle dropper of a heavy Euronymph trio. Ice in the margins of the river and an upstream breeze made the forecast 5 degrees feel much colder.

2 Grayling

Lasted three hours before I started shivering. ...Rewarded by a chunky grayling on a ptn

1 Grayling

Water levels were manageable again after the amount of rain we received over the beginning of Jan. Managed to euro nymph without a great deal of extra weight on the line, point flies we’re getting down just fine in the flow. Caught 2 Grayling and one out of season Trout. All fish quickly released on barbless hooks in the net.
