Decent days fishing with ten fish. Sadly apart from one decent grayling the rest were quite small most caught on spiders a couple on GH hares ear. Partridge & Orange took most of the fish.

Three small trout only, caught on spiders and one euronymphing. Probably the poorest day I've had on this beat. The top half is still very slippery underfoot, and it's still quite difficult to get up to for a nearly seventy four year old. All fish caught on bottom section.

Lovely beat.
Just two fishing .
Heavy rain till mid morning then intermittent sunshine.
No obvious sign of fish moving.
Early afternoon the water started to rise and become coloured. The next day should have been good…!

I fished here again, almost to the day, for the first time in four years. On a fishing-perfect, almost windless, cloudy day, never have I seen the river so low and the fish so inactive during the last 14 years’ fishing this wonderful beat. We can only think that the prolonged spell of unseasonably “hot” water has negatively affected the fish, particularly and perhaps not unsurprisingly, the grayling. Only today, for the first time in a month or so (?), has the water temperature been a safely fishable16-18 degrees. Grayling in particular have been much more responsive during the last two months in the significantly cooler upper river down to Doldowlod, below the Elan confluence. We covered the beat from top to bottom, with the old man, concerned about his verticality, sticking to the less perilous features! Fish were caught on jigs and spiders and, as usual in August, there were a few pale wateries and some sedges, but hardly a fish rose even in the usually prolific areas of both halves of the beat and, in stark contrast to the upper river of late, fish were very reluctant to get off their backsides for a passing emerger. Nonetheless we had some fish on a #16-18 pale HF emerger, grizzle EH caddis, CDC and Elk and a deer’s hair emerger, with trout to 12” and grayling to 13” plus the bonus of GR of Letton’s 8lb barbel on a brown Jumbo Gum peeping caddis! All fish safely returned. Many thanks to the owners for maintaining impeccable access. Hard to see the river below Builth becoming more prolific until we have lots of cooling rain and much lower daytime temperatures i.e. probably not any time soon!

About 25 degrees and sunny so only fished heavy beaded nymphs on the bottom. Most fish in strong current section at the head of Lady Alexander's Catch. Caught the best trout (3/4lb) at about 2.30pm. All other fish came after 6pm.
