This was supposed to be day 1 of a 3 day trip to Upper Wye beats for grayling - but the weather had other ideas! Everything east of the Cambrian Mountains was running high so we looked west - to the Ystwyth, which was also in spate but then settled on the Rheidol, which according to web sites was low - and so it proved. After 2 hours and 1 6" brown trout we concluded that the chance of a salmon was nil and headed for the hills - to Llyn Oerfa, not a water we have tried before but which does produce some good fish. Nothing was stirring however but JB managed to tease a fish up on a skated sedge - and it was a fat clonker, not weighed but estimated at 2lbs at least. Having the Aberystwyth waters on the web site certainly gives more options but we didnt want to go back again - so day 2 and 3 are wash outs given more rain. Hope the salmon boys will be happier next week....
