Slow day on the Lugg, very few hatches and even fewer rises. All fish taken from slow pools on a black nymph suspended under a clinkhammer, which felt like still water fishing. I tried hard to get a fish from some of the faster runs, but not a touch.

Nothing caught. Bright day with wind blowing downstream, quite strong at times, made casting difficult. No risers seen all day, insect activity started to increase about 19:30 when I needed to leave the site.

This was a tough day confirmed by the presence of only one other angler on the bank who reported that daytime catches have been sparse, with regulars waiting until the evening in the hope of better sport. In theory I was fortunate that there was quite a lot of cloud cover during the day, sometimes accompanied by the required heavy ripple, but Talybont's trout did not entirely agree with this and bar two takes that did not stick my only action involved a fish of perhaps a pound and a quarter which took the Kate Mac, a deep-bodied hen fish that was admired and returned. Dries, when I gave them a swim, were entirely ignored. A group of three cormorants flying up over the lake was not reassuring. With the lake already quiet in early summer, how will anglers fare in a month or in two months from now if the warm, bright weather has continued?..
