Very hard fishing, water very low and clear. No hatch activity or raising fish, managed to connect with one on the nymph but did get it in the net.

Difficult day no action

Great to be back on the river again. Water low and clear, weather not bad at all. I waited all day for that big early season hatch of flies which would bring the fish on feeding - but it never came. Never mind. Four pulls on a downstream nymph, of which one came to the net.

A beautiful day to the immersed in the Welsh spring. The river was too low to be at its best and very bright. Some March browns hatching, but the trout didn’t react. A few fish rising sporadically to large dark olives. 1 nice trout of around a pound caught and returned.

Some flylife between 12 and 2.

Water conditions good. Lovely warm day with olives and the occasional March brown but nothing rising to the hatches. 1 hard fighting but skinny 15” trout on a nymph

First time out here and opted for the middle parking spot for starters. Wasnt very clear to me where the lower was ,only spot seemed to be at a gated field entrance and could have given a problem as was in my VW van.
Parking at middle is just fine. Didnt have time to investigate upper parking.
River adjacent to parking seemed a fast chute of water beyond barbed wire and heavy brush so started at the end of the wood just upstream. Couple of good looking runs there . Nothing really doing on top , just the odd fly on the go and one or two fish showing erraticly. Opted for my late season favourite, a daddy long legs but they werent really on it,just a few splash and dash rises,fished through some lovely water too.
Found the path through the wood adjacent to the river ( theres a stile in to the wood at the bottom corner of the wood btw ) and wandered quite aways upstream. Some fab water along there but sadly v v difficult to get down too , v v steep and heavily wooded banks.
All in all it was a lovely walk there through the woods on an indian summers day!
Sat it out in the evening back down at the end of the wood hoping for some spinner/sedge but no luck, just a lovely sunset upstream.
If you a right hand caster (like me ) I would advise being on your game there with the backhand or spey casting!
Found my wading staff to be invaluable too.
