Well , I did have plans to give the tribs a break till more rain is added too them ….. apparently we are getting some the weekend ..!!!!! We shall see. But with the Hundred House beat fishing so well on the Sunday , I couldn’t resist a return visit ,…… early bells too , got there at half seven , I was parking up at the bridge pull in and it was already 13 degrees reading in my truck , 28 degrees when I left at midday….

Anyway , another fab few hours …. I did venture further upstream too , haven’t done that for a couple of years ….. past the jungle area , then it sort of opens out again, strewth , it really is unkempt up there too … like a scruffy school kid needing a dam good haircut !!!! Still , where I could get a cast away , plenty of savage takes to my eighteen para Adams , which I fished along with a tan klinkhammer with equal success this morning ….No mayfly seen at all during my whole session , think that’s the last of them here maybe ..

The usual stamp of fish …. Six to eleven inches , and always beautifully marked these spotty Edw fish… always hit your dry with such aggression , love it !!! Managed ten to the net , half a dozen
didn’t quite make it , and a few mistimed strikes …. In fairness , with the heat bearing down by half ten , I was more than happy with the mornings tally …. Oh and a few Coch y bonddu beetles seen in the meadow on the walk back to the bridge , might just catch an afternoon on Claerwen reservoir , time permitting ….. another pleasant few hours in perhaps my favourite valley ….. lovely job !!!!!

No fish today

Very good for the first day absolutely beautiful fishing well worth the £45 one of the best fishing days I have experienced in 25 years

6 Barbel, 12 Chub, 2 Other

Concentrated on the faster parts of the river, trotting meat. Chub very obliging. Gave up counting after 15. A few barbel spotted flashing and a salmon leaping periodically. Very hot day but a good days fishing.

Lovely stretch as per usual on this wonderful river. Sadly no barbel today but the river was running low and clear and it was super hot. Having said that some great chub sport was had early on fishing from the salmon croy lower down with all fish being returned safely. Once the sun was up it was too hot ????. Lovely stretch and a really nice owner and one I’ll be back to fish
