First time on the Monnow - gorgeous. Mixed bag of weather - sun, cloud, warm, cold, rain and stiff breeze at times. Winkled a decent grayling from the depths and a lovely little trout on a dry. Most activity at the downstream end of the beat.

River up a little and some colour after yesterday's rain but very few flies about and no consistent rises. Only fished for 3 hours up to midday resulting in 4 lovely small trout from deeper pockets using weighted nymphs.

Felt a bit chilly windy when I got there and the water a bit chilly and cloudy. Only one half hearted rise seen and the odd yellow mayfly seen before they got eaten by birds.

Felt a bit chilly when I arrived and found the river a tiny bit cloudy with a slight chill (result of yesterdays rain?} Only one half hearted rise seen and the very occasional yellow may seen coming off

Was pleased with this as most of beat was unfishable due to drought conditions.
Much of beat is inaccessible anyway, will not be coming here again.
