A beautiful day and the river was in brilliant condition: this is a great stretch and one of the most easily fishable of the beats above Brecon. Only managed a few hours in the afternoon although it looked as if the evening would have been promising. A few flies coming off, but no rises. Two 7/8 inch trout to my nymph.

Water was perfect, gin clear! Saw some very small trout 2-3", didn't catch anything though.

Lovely setting even though the river was high and coloured. Caught three nice small WBT. Thanks.

Fished in the evening with the river at a good height but still a bit coloured. Caught a couple of small fish on dry flies but saw nothing bigger move all evening.
I fished into the darkness hoping for some activity but nothing happened. It was a strange experience having lots of bats swooping very close and low over the river.

Arrived with the intention of fishing the "evening rise" only to be rained off within an hour ! Some downpour it was too! Hope the young family camping opposite the house were ok. Nil caught.

Lot of fish caught in dry fly. Small and medium during the day and bigger one at sunset (all released).

Water low and clear. Some rain during afternoon and early evening.

No sign of surface activity. All fish to nymph fished deep. All fish returned.

Whatever happened to flaming June? Here we are with the days getting shorter but its still cold enough to fog our breath. This malarkey does not get any more predictable after 50 years of piscatorial perambulations.
With precipitation to the fore even the sheep couldn't be bothered to run away from us. But the fish did. What a struggle - despite a decent hatch. We finally managed a brownie each - a sympathy vote by the fish I think - but gave up at 4, cold and wet. Ah well - perhaps the weather might be better by Thursday?

Fishing tough, rain and wind all day. I did not see one rise thoroughout the river. Even though I didn't see or catch a fish I still like this beat will return when the weather warms up a bit.
