Feedback & Reports

Good days fishing on a lovely beat, the sun even came out. Caught four brown trout of 12". Accompanied most of the day by a very busy otter.

6 trout caught between us up to 3/4 of a pound, size 16 G/Heads. Several good size trout lost. Water clear. A very enjoyable days fishing.

Unfortunately the Usk was in flood so we could not fish at Penpont so nil return. We were there for 3 days and was unable to fish our beats due to the bad weather.

Did not fish because of flood conditions

Penpont was a great place to spend the day with Bob and Naithan. All in all around 8 fish were landed with a few missed or long range released. A good hatch around 1pm had the fish looking up all afternoon.

Caught only one nice brown trout of 13 inch. The other rod blanked. Saw a female goosander with 6 youngsters at Aberbran bridge at the downstream end of the beat. I will report that at the applicable website.

My son had one trout and caught him with a nymph. We had some showers and saw some fish in the afternoon.

13 brown trout caught and returned, 6 on nymphs, 7 on dries
weights between 8 oz and 1.5 lbs. A very large brown was hooked and lost, estimated to be around 4.5 lbs +.

Fairly disastrous afternoon all in all. I slipped getting out of the river and pulled a muscle and my sons wading boots fell to bits. No fish were actually caught but a lovely stretch of the Usk. The weather was showery and a very cold wind blew down the river. Many thanks to the girls in the office for arranging this at the last minute for us and so nice to meet you and to be able to put a face to the voice!!

3 rods caught 24 trout mostly in the 8-10oz range with a few just over the pound mark. Most fish caught on tungsten ptn fished under the klinkhammer with a couple on dries. Weather cold but dry. Rock and roll baby!
