Difficult conditions to cast

River looked good was fishing well then called it a day shortly after the wind and rain arrived mid afternoon. Both trout on nymphs 11-12" and grayling on nymphs & dries biggest c.1lb. Used a small grey duster dry.

2 Trout, 9 Grayling

Hmmm - bit of a weird day after three productive days on the Wye - all I caught here was blanket weed - a real shame.

Two other things:
Could you advise the farmer that there's a recently deceased sheep on the right bank near the bottom end of the beat (Pretty much directly opposite the pedestrian gate on the opposite bank.)

I found a very nice new "Twin Peakes flyfishing baseball cap" dropped here or potentially drifted downstream from somewhere - maybe you could canvass users and I can post it on. Possibly drop it in to you tomorrow

Another fantastic day! Started at sunrise by the gates in the middle of the beat. Very slow to start with but eventually started to get bites trundling meat. Had 2 Barbel and a few chub, but decided to move into the deep water 100 mtrs downstream.
Paid off with 4 more Barbel to 6lb 8oz and a couple lost. Finished on the tail of the pool by the pump house and found a shoal of chub. Ran out of bait with 20 chub caught in total.
Well worth the drive up and back from Devon!
