Water very fishable but very cold (no higher than 6 degrees on thermometer all day)! Plenty of spider and nymph fishing with no success and no fish seen, about to leave when spotted a fish rising 100 yards above bridge regularly so put a size 16 quill olive over it and landed it first cast!

River in flood so no fishing

Got to Craig Llyn but was presented with an unfishable brown push. I swapped to Penpont - different river, different catchment and the Usk looked much better. Started on a nymph duo through the runs but nothing happening at all.
Early afternoon I met another WUF angler coming up stream from the camping ground. He was turning back so I turned too and started back upstream to the house, and with the sun now warming things up, I put on a dry. A fish (which clearly hadn’t read the all staff bulletin) rose more than once in the same spot so I put a small daddy longlegs pattern on its nose for a nice fish which saved the day!
