lovely day on river, all to nymph

10 Grayling

Cold, a blustery wind kept fish down. Had to look for them. All caught on nymphs.
At 0.60m on the EA Ddol Farm gauge and 0.47m on the Elan, the river was high, but clean and fishable.

Wading is very difficult. In most of the stretch it is impossible to get down to the river unfortunately.

Nothing moving all afternoon but hooked a couple around 5 and landed one. Too small to keep. Took a little brown nymph drifting across the current at bottom of the beat

Quite a chilly day with a d/s wind. Water had a nice tint but was pushing through a bit which made the wading even harder than the last time I fished here!
Didn't get a touch before midday but the fish switched on after that before I stopped at 3.
Didn't see any fish rising so just upstreamed a nymph - biggest trout 11" and biggest grayling around a pound.
The other was a salmon parr about 6".

Fished from 11 to 2pm on the upper beat, ystrad side where I caught the 3 trout (2 x 1/2 lb and 1 x 1lb), then 2:30 to 5:30pm on the lower beat catching none. I was using beaded nymphs all day but did see a couple of rises. The water was very clear. Only the second time I'd used waders and found it very challenging as it warned on the website with rocks very slippy. Need to buy a wading staff I think! Lovely day though and hope to return.
