River had clear nicely today, Had a good take in the orchard which didn't come to anything and that was my lot.

After water levels were dropping yesterday and the river clearing, I was hoping to be in for a good day today. Alas, more rain came in and the river up at 3' this morning - If yesterday we were somewhere around the colour of the inner workings of a Mars Bar - today we had drifted firmly into the arena of a Yorkie. With great regret, I did not fish, already back home. Poked my head in on the upper Usk, much the same story. I imagine quite a lot of fish will be picked up next week when this settles down, wish I could be there! I did see an Egret knocking about, hard to get the scale of it - could it be a Great White?

River was dropping but still holding colour.

River high and coloured but fished Dolmeudw and Orchard with different flies for four or so hours. Moved or at least saw one salmon jump towards the bottom of Dolmeudw but couldn't tempt it or any others.

1 Trout

gauge running at just over a foot after Monday nights rain, but no sign of any Salmon.

1 Trout

4lb Grilse at Chapel catch with Japanese Lure for Cherry salmon.

1 Salmon

No fish. My favourite place Chapel run was taken up by a coarse fisherman with 3rods unfortunately.

WUF Note : An angling club has access to Llangoed on Sundays only for coarse fishing. However, they should not be fishing the Salmon Pools. This information has been passed to the fishery owner.

just fished top third of beat , all grayling between 8-13 inches . very windy with very little fly on the water . a few rises but not enough to switch to dry. very shocked at the lack of trout , had a few around 10 inches. i did have a look at the lower section near waterworks but again no rises.
