5 x BT, 7 to 12 inches, all on parachute Adams. All returned safely.

Fished from approximately 10:30am until 8:30pm with a break of a couple of hours. Caught only one brown trout no bigger than 10inches in length and lost another fish, species unknown. With no fish rising to the many insects abounding on the water I used a weighted nymph in the fast water. No evening rise to be seen, the river isn't ready to fish well yet.

Did not fish ..............raging torrent of brown Windsor soup!

Did not fish due to wash off (agreed with WUF by phone)

13 trout. Most very small, one larger stocked "blue spot" fish of just over a pound.
All caught on klinkhammers and parachute adams. Water quite brown getting progressivley worse during the day due to high rain fall

I had 2 trout first thing from the bridge pool on comparadun Mays whilst waiting for a friend. We fished mainly the upper half of the beat and caught a number of trout all on dries - best about a pound. There was some colour in the river but fish rose here and there to mayflies mainly. Another very enjoyable day on the Monnow.

18 brown trout between two rods, mostly on mayfly a couple on small olives. Largest fish 14". Fish rising throughout the day except for a two-hour period of coloured water following a very heavy shower.

We caught 22 trouts during the all day mostly with sedge dry flies.
We found the Foundation's service very good and extremely convenient for strangers.
Your accommodation was very nice at: Bernice & John www.cerdynvilla.co.uk

River quite coloured with lots of fly life including Mayflies but mostly ignored by fish. Very sunny with breeze. Caught 10 trout up to 14in on dry fly.

River slightly coloured but good hatch of olives when arrived at 1pm and caught several fish straight off including nicely marked specimen of 1lb+. Mayflies on water but fish not really interested and nothing of note during the afternoon. Weather warm & sunny with a breeze which dropped early evening and by 7pm classic Mayfly rise as I stood in the river surrounded by duns and spinners. The bigger fish just gently sipped my fly...there it was gone! Left at 10pm with fish still rising. Lost count of total catch but over 20......several good fish with best 1.5lbs. One of those magic evenings!
