Feedback & Reports

Water height and clarity were good but I did not move any salmon. However a 4lb chub did take my size 12 fly - I'm not sure who was more surprised - but he is back in the water to provide future sport to someone with lighter tackle.

Blank.

No salmon seen or caught.

None seen, none caught.
Thankyou

Did not fish until 5pm due to the bright sunny conditions. Saw one fish in the Spring Pool but no takes. Lots of good trout showing in Bachwy in the late evening! Maybe better to fish for trout!

Water 2'2" on Llanstephan gauge and clearing. Fresh 8lber (no lice) from Leaning Willow mid morning on a smallish Usk Grub. Fish took 20yds above the boil in front of the hut, almost on the dangle. Latched onto another for a few seconds later in the afternoon in the tail of Spring Pool which came to nowt. News of 1 lost and 1 landed at Caemawr rounded off a very good day.

6 trout all between in 9 -12 inch. 2 caught on 2 1/2in Griffiths Minnow, Black and salmon pink (near fishing hut)
4 caught on size 4 bronze Mapso popper ( mep )(near leaning willow). 1 salmon parr 7in also taken on mep. All lures used intended for salmon. All fish returned.

Looked at the river the night before and it was just under 2' and looking realy good for the morning, but when I got there with a rod it had gone up another 6" or so over night. Colour was still good however and it did drop back quickly during the day so I hung around and fished a bit in the late afternoon without success.

Nil.

River in perfect order 1'8 dropping to 1'6". Nice overcast day but unfortunately no contact made with any salmon.
