Nice looking section of river but a very disappointing day, under no circumstances will I book this beat again in the spring / summer especially at the weekend. I fished down sewage pool ( looked my best chance as top pool was very shallow ) and as I got to the near the road bridge someone threw a large stick in for their dog which promptly jumped into the pool and swam all over it. The tail of the pool had a family with kids playing in the water! Pools constantly disturbed by the public and / or their dogs. Nothing private about this stretch. Ended up fishing for trout and caught 1 in a half hour then left very annoyed.

Pool

Fished all day. Rain in PM. Just fished Dry Flies and rose fish throughout the day. Some Mayflies but imitations did not rise the trout. Wonderful evening rise to tricky fish. Best flies H/E Klink, Sedges, Adams Invincible. Lovely colony of Swifts nesting in bank.

Lovely beat.

Hot bright day with breeze building up over course of the day. Fished mainly the upper half of the beat. Only saw two fish rise. Hatch very sparse

Variety of methods worked, dries early then the upstream nymph and downstream spider later. 2 crackers around 14", proper Usk leopards. River in really good nick and fished well given bright conditions
