Keep going and you will get there. A stunning 18lb fish from the Llangoed pool its self great take and fight although it took some putting back 15 minutes but went back.

after a few blank days had a lovely 20-25lb bar of silver from the gravel catch. fish was marked with what looked like net marks. Went back ok

Did not fish

A chilly NW breeze for most of the day but a brief respite around 1pm and there was a hatch of MBs.
All fish caught in dry fly and returned, best fish 1.5lb.

A similar story to yesterday, save that I managed to catch a feisty 14”er on nymph during the morning. The hatch when it finally started was no more than a trickle and failed to bring fish to the surface, save for two which I discovered in quieter water above the confluence. The first I rose but only pricked. The second was caught after a change of fly and was much chunkier than the rise form suggested, a beautifully marked 15”er. I share the views of other anglers about the restricted access to this beat. The use of barbed wire is both excessive and unsafe. Otherwise, another lovely day courtesy of the WUF.

2’1 on the gauge today with a nice tinge of colour.It was quite difficult casting heavy tungsten tips with the strong downstream breeze, but I wanted to fish the top catches, which I haven’t fished for a while, so spent the morning on both sets of boards on the Gromain and Radnor banks, covering Bachawy. The inevitable happened late morning and I had an unplanned swim. So I’m going to fail my audition as a trapeze artiste.
Early afternoon I had a solid take to the flyingC that I switched to in the Spring Pool but after a bout of head shaking it didn’t stick to the crushed barb hook. A probable salmon but after hooking a 6lb + Chub on a salmon fly a couple of days ago, and initially thinking it was a kelt, I couldn’t be sure.
The effects of my earlier dip set in by 4.30 and I was glad to get to a warm car.
A pleasant day nonetheless.
