Feedback & Reports

Tough day at Bugeilyn too much sun and not enough wind I guess.
Managed a few and missed a few but a good reminder it's not always easy.

Lovely day on the Lyn, caught fish on heather fly imitations . Watched Osprey in the afternoon. Water temperature warm at 18.5 C.

First time visit and I was not disappointed. Fish rising for much of the day, mainly heather fly and then ants later in the afternoon.
21 trout to the net and a similar number either missed or released at distance. Nothing huge, but they are plenty feisty.
I was concerned about the track, but my elderly mondeo coped admirably.

Arrived around 09:30 with the lake in the clouds which lifted after a hour, remaining overcast for most of the day. Plenty of Heather Fly being blown onto the water with the trout freely rising to them all over the lake. Both of us fished dry using black hoppers and stimulator. Estimate of around 35 fish landed between us and as usual many more lost or missed. Finished fishing around 19:00 just as small flying ants where taking to the wing. Once again saw the male hen harrier as we drove back along the track to the main road, followed by the osprey as we drove past Clywedog.

Very windy session 1230-1630
Introduced some friends from Bavaria to fly fishing at this superb location.
For complete novices in challenging conditions they fished well and were rewarded with 2 on the dry fly.

Humid,still overcast afternoon. Started well with a few rises and takes on butchers in the top water. Went very quiet for 5. Took one on a squirmy at depth. Then nothing worked. Huge midge hatch from 7, we were unprepared and retreated even though the fish were freely rising from 7.30 onwards. It is one of the best places to fish there is when it's like that. Will return with mosi protection.

Always a great trip to Bugeilyn.

Landed 5 trout, lost another 5 and missed a few.
Everything on dry flies. Very fussy and easy to spook.
Hot clear day.

Saw an osprey and peregrine.
