Brilliant day, 9 grayling to the net all in the space of 2 hours then the bite went off. Estimated between 500g and 1.8lb. Fished a total of 5 hours. River is beautiful, fantastic scenery and great fun even with no wading permitted there are some swims fishable from the bank. Method was mostly euronymphing they went for a self invented and tied nymph pattern with one fish caught on klink and dink PTN nymph.

This is a lovely beat in a beautiful setting in the heart of rural mid-Wales. There were three of us fishing the beat but it was hard going in the very low and clear water conditions. We have had a very dry February. We only managed to catch 8 grayling and they were small with the biggest fish only weighing about 12oz. Four were taken trotting red maggots in the morning and four were taken on the fly in the afternoon (3 on a size 14 Usk Nailer and 1 on a size 16 Griffith's Gnat). There was a brief and sparse hatch of large dark olives in the early afternoon but the fish were not actively rising to them. We also caught quite a few out-of-season brown trout. The birdlife was good too; so ideal for any angler who is also a keen ornithologist.
