River dropping and clearing nicely. Warmest day for a while .. but many fewer things hatching than on Tuesday and no fish rising. Even the birds have gone elsewhere today.

The only fish I saw was a 5 inch trout which ate my nymph as it trailed in the water when I was walking back to the bank. Does that count as a catch?

Lovely day though.

River fast and coloured. Hatches of yellow may duns and small olives and the odd mayfly. A feast for the birds but no fish rising in the torrent.

Both fish caught and returned czech nymphing over what was dry land last time I was here a few weeks back, when we were hoping for rain. Careful what you wish for.

As always a lovely day on the Wye.

Water level just below lower planks, flowing nice and clear. Wind sometimes blowing strong and clod straigght down the river , showers all day. various Fly hatching . No joy spinning withg flying C, or trout fishing with an Adams and pheasent tail nymph kink and dink. Enjoyable day though disapointing lack of fish, Not for the want of trying.

Water falling nicely flowing clear. I found it a bit cold after a stumble and found myself on hands and knees in knee deep water. Weather very changeable. No fish seen.

Water falling til the Llanstfan guage just breaking the surface. Water has been clearing all day long. Should be prefect for a fly tomorrow. No fish seen, flying C working well but no action.. Plenty of fly hatching judging be the swallows and martins having a feast.

Water dropped to 1' on Llanstfan gauge, good flow and very clear. One brownie about 11/2 lb. Returned. On gold bead GRHE. Some fly hatching not many rides.
Staying at The River Cabin by Trericket Mill. Perfect if you are lucky enough to get a reservation.

River didn't look that bad when I arrived mid morning, not much fly life until later on when the occasional fish was rising. Missed several takes but only managed to land one. Unfortunately I had to pack up earlier than intended due to a splitting head ache.

Hello everyone. The weather was changeable. Rain, hail and sun. 11 trout and 1 grayling (all returned to the water) Most of the wet fly with the addition of red color. A few dry flies. Fish took off to each dry fly but there were blind arrows.

11 Trout, 1 Grayling

Bright and sunny, mostly strong gusty wind, very cold. 1 x trout 1/2 lb (estimated & returned) Grey Duster dry; 1 x trout 1/4 lb (estimated and returned) Double Badger dry. Very entertaining Oyster Catchers and Little Egrets. Enjoyed the day not least the peace and quiet.

After yesterday, came back for more!

A different story with the BBC definition of a "moderate breeze" feeling like an arctic gale and interesting interludes with gents in hoodies and fishing lines and a wild swimmer on the opposite bank at the lower end of the beat.

3 trout taken on dry flies and even with the diversions mentioned above an enjoyable day on a lovely beat
