Feedback & Reports

So plenty of rain the day before had freshened up the river and the runs I had fished two days earlier were moving faster. Fished entirely the wrong part of the day - mid morning until 4pm as I was tired in the morning after fishing Doldowlod the day before and had to travel home. The grayling were on the euro set up and lost 3 more but the amount of interest was low compared to two days earlier. Didn’t really fancy the tricky wading of the run at the top of the beat so had a go at prospecting with a sculpin pattern on the remainder of the deeper sections lower down. Pretty sure I had a couple of plucks but no hook ups. Fish were rising throughout the day and several decent sized trout cleared the water leaping, all of course in the most ridiculously inaccessible areas

The other were eels, very difficult day in low river conditions.

River low. Could not get action on pellets over several hours. Switched to meat and things improved greatly.
Chub all of a good standard but barbel refused to show.
That aside. A very good fishery and very peaceful.
Thank you.

River very low in places and limited bank access. would benefit from another 1 or 2 pegs to make it easier to get access to water. Agree with other comments to travel light as walk from car park is steep and could be slippery in wet weather. Barbel and chub showing in late afternoon/early evening. Double figure barbel and 2 pound chub. Both on pellet.

No fish today, My first time on the Usk , it won’t be my last.The weather was warm and wet with threatening thunderstorms.

Didn’t fish today, desperate times. We have a week every September on the Wye and we love every second of it catch or not but none of us could face going back to the river in its current state today
