River levels very low after the summer, but still a few trout about and some decent sizes up to 1Ib

Difficult spot for me, not very experienced at fishing or wading. It’s really narrow and casting was almost impossible for me. Caught a lot of trees and undergrowth but no fish. I learned a lot about wading and I’ll be getting a walking stick before next time.

The best access is via the public footpath at Tan Campsite, cross to a bridge in the corner of the field and then you’re half way up the beat. I made the mistake of trying to go in lower and had to negotiate a lot of barbed wire.

Great morning fishing very low water + a couple of crayfish

Finally broke my duck on my nemesis beat with two trout on dries in faster water mid afternoon. Lovely spot but could do with better access to the lower end of the beat

I had done a recce on wyebank so kind of knew to travel light and take my ab sailing gear to get down to the river. After reading some catch reports I decided to start on the float i had about ten fish then it went dead so I went on the feeder , I ended up with 25 barbel to 3 lb and 7 chub to 3.8 lb. really enjoyed my last day and was good news after two hard days

25 Barbel, 7 Chub

Although we enjoyed a lovely day fishing on the Usk , it was spoilt for some time due to the Army having canoe training on the reservoir and were quite close to were we were fishing , which wasn’t helping the fishing at all , once they left we did catch 2trout , so it made up for the earlier disruption. Otherwise it was a beautiful day spent in a beautiful location and look forward to returning again soon .
