Feedback & Reports

As seems to be normal nowadays the fishing was very poor . I had one early rise to dry after that nothing although I tried different tactics. Saw one or two small fish in deeper water but they spooked easily. The lower section is very slippy and dangerous on one's own and didn't produce any fish. I am slowly beginning to wonder if river fishing is worth the effort it seems so poor compared to a few years ago. This seems to be true of most rivers.

Not any action in the morning, apart from a lovely brown trout. In the afternoon I caught my 6 on the worm, with a 2 ft trace. Weather was breeze towards me ,mixed cloud mainly with some sun. The Usk is a beautiful place to be.

First time we'd fished Llyn Bugeilyn for about 7 years, and it didn't disappoint. Fished from about 10am to 6pm and lost count of the number of fish caught, well in excess of 20 fish each. Black flies fished near the surface doing the trick, with some big takes and plenty of good size fish for an upland lake.

As mentioned in a previous report the track to the lake has been improved since our last visit.

WARNING - Print off the the Map and Directions or write down the gate padlock code prior to visiting. On arrival the gate was closed with no padlock. When we left the padlock was on the gate. Fortunately I had the foresight to write down the padlock code and when I checked my emails I was unable to view the attachments with the code on due to no phone service in the area.
