One each for myself and TH. Short lunch time session. Both on heavy nymphs and french leader. A few olives starting to come off when we left, but not a single rise to be seen.

4 x trout 6-14 inches, Dark Moorgame. A few quite quickly on spiders early on which seemed encouraging, but a very cold wind arose which seemed to kill the river. Nothing seen hatching - left early afternoon.

10 x trout 10-14 inches, March Brown Jingler and various spiders. A mild day, turning to rain later, but river still pretty high at 1ft 4 inches. There were several intense but very short-lived March brown hatches after lunch, with a lot of fish rising. I seemed to miss a lot of fish today but some of the regular anglers did very well. I'm hearing about salmon catches right up here at Brecon, which is early for so high on the river. They certainly have had the running water.

a total disaster, water at 1ft6 on gauge which was just fishable but i parked at the lower limit car park on the true left bank. i spent more time walking to try and get in the water than fishing , as i got half way up the beat i noticed all the better fishing was from the right bank with easy access to the water. fed up i went back to the car and just left for home. several other anglers there as well. will probably not fish again due to that reason. did hooked 4 all of decent size but lost all to hook pulls trying to stop them getting into the fast water. nice to see it though as not fished here before but for the extra tenner dinas to me is far better.

5 x trout 10-12 inches, spiders. Still 1ft 4 inches on the gauge; large dark olives hatching midday.

River at much better level than yesterday. Early LDO hatch then lots of MBs through afternoon til 4.00. Only pricked one on the dry, then landed 3 on nymph and one on spiders. 4 Fish 12 to 14 inches. Can’t seem to do very well during the hatches. Feisty beasts tho.
