Feedback & Reports

Incredibly beautiful beat, but too hot for the fish today...a couple of biggish trout took nymphs in the fast water but shook off. Apart from that, very quiet. There was a rise starting just as I had to leave at 8.30pm. Caught a glimpse of an otter.

A stonking hot day, all day and into the evening. Two fish only fell to a Tups, I blanked myself, well done mate.

Fishing was hard very few rising fish as very little hatching so persevered with the nymphs.

Mixed days fishing with little activity on the surface despite the good conditions. Had several fish mainly on a GRHE fished in the faster water.

Conditins were good, including the water. But only small fish seemed to be feeding up to 2pm when I had to stop, both on the surface and on nymphs which I was using.

1 wild brown trout, around 14 inches long, caught from the broken water at the bottom of the first field - on PTN flashback fished duo below a Adams Klinkhammer. A number of bites missed from the flats higher up the field. Lovely beat - planning to return soon for another try.

Lovely days fishing on this beautiful beat of the Usk although not many fish caught what we did catch were hard fighting and in good condition. We will be back to this beat.

Caught two trout to 10" on an olive emerger; lost a few more. Plenty of fly life and lots of fish rising. Also plenty of rain and wind resulting in a few tangles. Saw a family of 3 otters swimming up stream. Nice beat but the wading was tricky.

River was low and clear with very littlem in the way of hatches. Dry fly was used throughout the day, only targeting rising fish of which there were few, due to very little fly coming off.
All trout were just under 1lb the best being 15oz and the smallest 12oz. All fish weighed in a Mclean weigh net.
