Much less water in the river than I had expected, but a very pretty stretch of river and I had a great day's fishing

2 Trout, 3 Grayling

There are a few fish feeding on the surface but seem to be totally oblivious to anything I put across them.

2 fish caught on spiders in the rapids

A lovely stretch of river but only seemed to contain very small (4-5 inch) trout which took my fly so quickly that I was unable to connect. I fished mainly dry fly but also tried nymph and wet flies but without success.

11 x trout 6-10 inches, Monnow Gosling. The mayfly is up, so big flies are in fashion again for a while. Some of the small fish have trouble grabbing onto a size 10, but they are certainly trying.

Landed one, lost another better fish in fast water. Both taken on nymphs. Some surface feeding in morning but none in afternoon as wind got up heavy rain. A lot of the river was static due to low water level. Enjoyed the day anyway.

Caught on gold ribbed hares’ ear dry flies. Plenty of fly hatching and a grass snake crossing the river late morning!

First time fishing this venue. Not so much as a bite. A lovely quiet place. My " old school methods" did not work today. I was using bread and luncheon meat. I usually get a response using these baits but that is fishing for you.

River very low. Fish feeding sporadically 12 - 1 and again after 6 pm. Just 1 trout caught on Dry Iron Blue Dun around 7 pm
