Feedback & Reports

Last trip of the season to Bugeilyn. Very misty and foggy all day but the fish were obliging. 10 nice sized trout landed, as usual almost as many missed. A lot of surface activity with a hatch of small black flies not sure what they were. Had to balance the size of fly with keeping it visible to me but not to big, still had missed takes. Fished up the boggy left hand side. A very enjoyable session, looking forward to next year already.

fished from approx 12.30 -5.30pm. 13 lovely trout netted and returned lost quite a few, fly of the day was hwyl-y-gwynt [ black hends spectra flash body, seemed to prefer this one over the ostrich body],also had a couple on crippled midge[claret and red mixed body,would have been more than happy to take my car along the track as it isnt to bad but the main gate in was padlocked so didnt have that option,overall a great day

Strong wind and squally showers when I started around 10.30. Fished the far side into the wind in the morning and caught close in on small Bibio. Fished in the lee of the hill in the afternoon with a few rising fish. tried a dry daddy long legs and had a few splashy rises but none stuck. Finished the day with a very small black emerging buzzer and caught a handful on that.
Over a dozen trout most around 10 inches.

Great to return to this special remote place after four years, windy and wet but two hours where two good fish with the unique black dorsal fin were caught and released, taken on a nymph, fish were deep due to conditions, no rises. Would like to spend more time here but rarely in the area, just managed to get a few hours on my own from the families holiday itinerary.
Definitely track for 4WD or good ground clearance only, note no mobile signal re health and safety. As I arrived and some walkers were just parking in the gateway to the track, not sure they were used to country code!?

Perfect conditions today,mild overcast and light breeze. Not much rising so stuck to small wets Bibio hopper taking most fish. 14 Trout mostly 8 to 10 inches. A couple of Cormorants visited in the morning but surprisingly didn't stay long.

Cold and wet day--very little surface activity. A silver march brown fished deep the most successful fly but small black also worked. As usual at Bugeilyn quite a few fish missed.

Around a dozen trout between 2 anglers best around a pound. Cold,wet,windy in the morning clearing mid afternoon.
A brief hatch of something unseen(we guessed buzzers) had the trout rising and a handful caught on small black dries.
The rest on wets.
