Fly fishing

7 Trout

Nice, reasonably clean hen around 7/8lb on a Francis, another lost on the take. Lovely day, Rectory tomorrow so hopefully more to come before the end of the season

1 Salmon

I thought I was on to save another Rectory blank at 10.00am with what seemed to be a solid take in the Mill Stream to a #14 Usk Grub, but it was not to be. Fish on for a few minutes and we parted company when it turned on the barbless hook close in. Another for the “could have been” column I suppose. A coloured cock fish of maybe 8-10 lb.
On a brighter note, there were a lot of salmon showing today, particularly in the bottom of the beat, and a few appeared quite fresh. A rarity , as I haven’t seen around a dozen fish show like this, all season. Hopefully there is a decent head of fish moving up now from the lower river after the last spate.

P.S Many thanks to the fellow member rods that I’ve met on the banks this season, who have given advice and shared their knowledge of the GLLR beats.
Much appreciated.
