Well thought I'd give an old favourite a bash this afternoon .... parked up at half eleven .... should have really left it another hour or more to be honest .... humid warm and they said maybe thunder and heavy downpours !!!
Tackled up my usual old faithful six foot two weight and initially plumbed for an #18 Para Adams ... a great suggestive fly for here ... Not much looking up the first hour then bang .... I'd been watching an increasing amount of Upwings, sedge and some hawthorn on the go... nice snd warm by half one ....
Missed a few today but still a cracking few hours , went right up to the road at Hundred House ... First time I've done that in an age, some lovely trouty pools up there!!! Splashy takes on my Adams and Para Greenwells .... I did actually see three mayfly at the back end of the day .... about fourish.... seven made it to the net .... sizes from five to eleven inches maybe ... good fun although seemed so confined after Craig Goch and Claerwen Resevoirs !!! Will venture out on another wild stream on Saturday .... I think things are hotting up ......at last !!! Been a slooooooooow start on the wild streams ..... home and time to crack open a bottle of Old Speckled Hen !!!

No catch today, but some lovely hours on the river Usk.

Rough weather today.Rain and wind making land your cast where you wanted difficult.Fish from 4 to 11 inches . started with Duo and then switched to double dry fly just to try to bring the fish up and see the takes.Missed many many more .

Lovely day on this great stretch, sadly fish weren’t cooperating other than a few missed takes on dries.

Beautiful beat, beautiful day.
A couple of showers, but otherwise fair - cloud with occassional sunshine.
River clearing and falling , but still little sign of fly life or the presence of fish.
Fished wets and nymphs through all the obvious lies, with no success.!

Good day all bagged up by 1 oclock
