First visit to Talybont, met with flat calm conditions, not great for fishing, but easy to spot rises early in morning. Luckily a breeze did get up and managed to land 3 nicely marked fish, all on diawl bachs from top end.

River seemed low across and most of the beat. It seems the named storms from earlier in the year may have brought down trees, some large ones and together with earlier flooding have collected all sorts of detritus including a road sign! Some deeper pools seem to stagnating as a result of the disrupted flows and low levels. I noted at the upper reaches some works have/are taking place that look like water extraction, is the Foundation aware of this?

River low and clear, very little wind. Surprisingly few flies hatching at the Dinas Road end of the beat, and hardly saw any fish movement until about 3pm. Then, having unsuccessfully tried spiders and various dry flies, I turned to a back and green klink with almost immediate success. Two nice fish, the latter about 14 inches. Nice also to see the kingfisher and a red kite overhead.

Lovely first day on this stretch of the Wye. Some good hatches during the the day and several fish showing at the surface. Does the river look a bit low for mid April ?
