Our first return trip to the Ithon for more than 20 years, and we weren't disappointed. The river was quite low but we caught throughout the day on a variety of dry flies. The majority of our catch of WBT and salmon parr were between 6 to 8 inches, although we did hook 4 much larger fish which slipped the hooks. It was great to be back on the Ithon, and we will definitely be returning again soon.

Heavy showers and some sunshine. A few fish rising but we were unsure what they were feeding on. Tried everything but never seemed to find the answer. Lovely day on a beautiful beat.

Fishing slow for most of the later afternoon that I fished. Took small trout early on and then nothing more. Fished tight line nymph in deep run and took a great Chubb, (first for me). Waited for mixed hatch to materialise, various mayflies, olives and a few Danica coming off but fish didn't move much. Late in evening, approximately 9.00pm a few fish started to rise consistently on the flats and I was able to pick off two of those on dry fly (modified F fly). But the rise didn't really ever get going despite apparently a good number of insects on the water. One trout taken on long cast to consistent riser was a real cracker. Very pleased with the evening. Not large numbers but wonderful trying to target active fish on a broad flat near the top of the beat. Really enjoyed it thank you.

Tough day with a stiff wind and bright sunshine all afternoon. Managed a few trout, predominantly in the last couple of hours of light when there was a decent hatch of BWOs.

All fairly small and taken on nymphs. apparently I was two weeks too late for the mayfly.
