Feedback & Reports

Perfect weather conditions, water a little low but v clear, seemed like a very fishy beat but, alas, no fish seen or caught.

Fantastic day out courtesy of extremely helpful beat owner Pari, with tuition and extra kit from Justin Connelly (which was even more impressive considering we only decided to come the evening before!). Beat and river were in great condition, about .72 on the gauge. Really healthy fly life with hatches throughout the day, and trout rising. An accidental trout , a big pull, and a big splashy take kept things interesting. We will certainly be back.

Tough day. No hatch until about 1pm and what hatch there was didn't bring many fish up. Ended up with five fish landed and a couple more lost.

Weather fine and warm with river just over .6m and very clear.
Both John and I fished the woodstream end to end. John had 2 trout of around half pound each
I fished a grannom to start to no avail then switch to a gold head hares ear nymph at the concrete groin and was immediately into a fish of between 2.5 and 3lb. Battled with it for about 2 min but it broke the 3lb maxima line.
Shame.
Very few rises and no salmon seen but an interesting day

Fished from 11:00 to 15:00, caught just the one trout (returned). Two other anglers had similar luck. Hot day but nothing significant hatching. Saw a few fish but they weren't feeding. River level was 0.62m at the Pont Gadwyni station which was OK for wading, lower would be preferable.

Very nice beat and superb information from owner, will be back.

I missed the morning hatch due to a very enjoyable chat with Jean at Sweets and a less enjoyable set of delays on the M4 due to people’s bad driving. So it was a tough afternoon. I hooked one trout opposite the pub but the got off before landing. After that nothing.

The owner’s bank work is sprouting nicely! It was a nice touch to get a call and chat about the fishery’s plans for the future.

River at 0.66 and gin clear, no salmon seen. Did see a goshawk over rock pool early morning

Nothing to report except accidental trout. The river was on the high side with 1ft 8 inches at the Trostrey gauge, but not too coloured, so there were reasons for optimism. It was good to be out casting again and thanks to owner Paris Paraskevas for the opportunity to fish it. However, I wasn't able to repeat his feat from last week!
