Good day plenty of offers and great sport on dry flies…

Lost more than I caught (but don't we all say that).

And BTW I found some prescription glasses in the grass. They were about half way round on the RHS, so may have been there for a long time, but given where they were, definitely the property of a fisherman. If anyone thinks it's theirs, please get in touch with me through the WUF.

Difficult day! Fish very uncooperative!
Not helped by finding the number for the padlock on the gate has changed but your office found the new one for which thanks.

Fishing Passport Note : Apologies for the inconvenience. The code had changed without our knowledge. Glad it was all sorted in the end.

Very scenic and remote, perfect fishing, not easy but rewarding, fished all round and caught on lee and windward shores and in bays at both ends

Lovely dry day but surprisingly cool and strong west wind. Very little surface action but enough to keep us interested. Only 12 fish landed[all returned] but several lost and missed.
Black Pennell favourite.

Great place to spend a day.

Another lovely day at the lake. A big hatch of small, dark, upwing flies at 3pm had the water boiling with rising and jumping trout. A big red sedge dry fly did the trick on a number of occasions. Mallard and Claret and Sedgeshog wet flies also productive.

The drive into Wales showed up how dry it has been with little water in the rivers and the upland streams completely dry.
As always, the approach is spectacular
We arrived about mid day to low 20's C, a light westerly breeze and hazy sunshine. When ever the breeze dropped fish started to rise, most out of cast in the middle of the Lyn. Six 1/2lb fish were caught on a foam beetle, at least one of the party being sufficiently awake to spot numbers of beetles hurling themselves into the water. The best fish, a lovely 14 inch was caught on a pale Deer's hair sedge pulled through the wind ripple and the other two on a Klink.
On the evidence of today there are lots of fish in this Lyn.
Also noted was the need for care, next time I will take some personal buoyancy as some of the drop offs are sudden & slippery with no hope of getting out if you fall in and with wetter conditions much of the Lyn margin would be quaking bog. The Lodge at Stayliitle is excellent and very good value.
