Well for a change headed for the Llynfi Dulas; middle beat this morning . Decidedly cooler and overcast , reading 16 in my truck when I parked up and had a survey of the valley below . It's a lovely view of the little Llynfi Dulas down in the valley . Quickly set up , opting for the usual small streams six foot two weight rod and tied on a Parachute Pheasant tail . A lot of insects on the go , sedges , olives and some mayfly showing from eleven bells . And the fish were looking up for scoff from the word go !!!!!

A great three hour s, didn't even make it to the deep pool were the Brook comes in but had some lovely sport , sticking to just the Parachute dry , lovely splashy takes this morning , superb !!! Lots of activity in the glides too and a lovely sight seeing the wild resident brownies rising confidently in the water too . . and also from the resident kingfishers , they were busy up and down too !!!

Some good fish this morning in a tally of ten too ! Most in the seven to ten inch bracket , but I did have two crackers , maybe eleven and twelve inches respectively , lovely , and a run around on the two weight rod too !!!

Next time I'm here I'll do the full beat , I had some jobs to crack on with back at the Ponderosa , so although it was a brief visit , still a varied sporting one , loved it !!!! Can't think why I don't come here more tbh !! It's is messy and needs a lot of attention , looks like the lower does too reading. B. P. 's report last week !!! Both need a good haircut and some major T.L.C !!!!!! So there's you go WUF the Llynfi Dulas , both beats are messy messy messsy !!!!! Stick it on your " To Do " !!!! List .

That said I personally dont mind a scramble about , and some lovely trout here if you cast carefully , and use stealth and cunning !! back here soon to do the full beat , a superb three hours . . . . . Spot on !!!!

Two fishing rising and luckily managed to net one which turned out to be a fine 2lb wild brownie which was swiftly released. Caught on a yellow mayfly pattern.

If it wasn't for this fish it would have been a very tough day out trying to find the fish. There are lots of deep pools and sections which scream fish but few were revealing themselves.
