Warm sunny day. Only fished for a couple of hours but fish very willing to take dry flies. Adams & white mayfly accounted for all our catch. Lovely stretch of water which we will hope to revisit.

Fished evening rise only. Fish focussed on emergers and very tricky to tempt with an artificial. 3 caught on warm balmy evening.

Looks like I was first to fish for a while. As expected the access is a bit of an obstacle course. But for those who like combat fishing and tree flies there are some lovely trout. Even so very few rising fish for the time of year and poor fly life on a stream that has had an abundance of both. Most year groups represented in the catch - largest 13" deep and round - worth the trip,
Stuck to an adams unless mayfly were seen to be taken.
25 meters above the start of the beat is a small side stream entering on the right it was thick with suspender mud and badly coloured the river downstream. It had cleared a week later (fishing on WSSP) but there was a coating of mud covering the bottom.

Upstream past Langdon Beck, concentrated on a couple of deeper pools. Parachute Adams and Red Tag did the business. All fish returned, best 12 ozs. DFN.

Well , Monday morning blues had to be shifted, so headed for one of my old stomping grounds , the Arrow at Kington !! Looking fab when I parked up and a gorgeous trouty height to the river too !!!

Fished between half nine and twelve this morning as had a few projects to crack on with at home . Warm and muggy reading fourteen in my truck when I initially set up my six foot two weight and opted for a tiny Parachute Iron blue which always does well here !!

Good solid splashy takes this morning ; all on the Iron blue or Adams in the fast water!! Great fun and some lovely tubby fish in a tally of nine . A few mayfly on the go from tenish , but previous seasons have shown me that they dont dine on them till mid afternoon here !!! Sizes from eight to eleven inches today ,.also two good fish lost on the barbless hooks !!!! Cest la vie !!!

Only got to the huge ash tree that's across the river , didn't fancy a scramble around it !!! So cut out into the field and bimbled back to the truck . Ohh and nice to see a style incorporated in the fencing , spot on !! I'm sure theres probably one up by the weir too !! A lovely session back home , a quick early dinner then crack on with some jobs !!! No peace for the wicked hey !!!! Lol !

Just thought it might be worth fishing the small overnight rise. Two small trout to an Usk grub early on, then the colour deteriorated quickly early afternoon. Not sure if it had a slight green tinge to it as well sadly.
No salmon caught or seen.
