River clear but high. Weather - a perfect autumn day, mist rising and then sunshine. Saw no fish moving and caught none - but it mattered not. This is a beautiful stretch of water.

Quite a tough day really with a strong downstream wind which resulted in the expected heavy leaf fall. Level still a little high but the clarity were fine and it was pretty nippy.
Concentrated away from the bedrock/gutter areas as the wading was challenging but did find some grayling in the gravelled areas. There was a flurry of LDO's around lunch time which brought some fish up including one or two healthy specimens. Total for the day 7 Grayling and one WBT. Sad to say there were Goosanders on the beat which we chased off but I caught one grayling with a fresh wound across the back. Goodness knows what they had eaten already.
Nice to see that the beat is available once again. The owner of Llanfechan house is asking anglers to put details of their catches in a diary that they keep.

1 brown trout on lure at Glaslyn pool. Another seen rising at mudpool but wouldn't come to fly. Lovely peaceful scenic stretch of river and as two very inexperienced fly fishers we had a great day. Needed the waders.

washed off river very high by lunch

2 trout 12-13 inch 2 grayling 12-14 inch.

2 good trout and 2 good grayling.

1 small trout.

Lovely beat. 6 Trout best 14", 1 oos Grayling 14" . All on size 16 adams and all returned.

3 small grayling caught and returned (out of season) all on parachute dries. One brown trout about 16 inches in fair condition caught and returned whilst Czech nymphing. Excellent water condition although air temperature a bit too low for much of a hatch.

2 grayling were caught, 1 of about 8oz released and one about 1lb 4oz kept.
