A few LDOs and the odd MB hatching but the river is still very cold.

Well fancied a session on one of my favourites !! After having a cracking morning up at Claerwen reservoir on Tuesday with a buddy , was nice to look forward to the confines of a wild stream !! As I parked up my thoughts were correct!! Very confined and a pretty low river tbh !! May be tricky I thought!!

I tackled up at nine , initially with my own flashback PTN and a tiny GRHE . . . Was a while till I hig into my first Edw fish of the season! Only eight inches and not the little tubby spotties of Summertime ! Still silvery tbh ! I mooched slowly upstream, another hit again in a deep pool , ditto in size . . .

Last fish was a nice one perhaps ten inches again deep water . Other than those , very quiet and with low cold water hardly surprising I thought !! I did notice a booking for I think Aberedw last night on the Wild Streams page ; so will be interesting to see if that angler faired better further downstream!!

Still a really pleasant four hours. . . Three lovely Edw fish to hand , a kingfisher keeping me company, and lots of extra wood down to join an already assault course of a stream !!! Oh well keeps you fit all the in and out of the river !! Back soon when its woken up properly and splashy rises are round every bend !! Happy days!!!

frost in morning and ice warmed up later in afternoon .tried spinners but no action seemed quite on water today

A nice couple of hours without seeing a fish. Plenty of fly life and a lovely sunny day. After lockdown was magic to be back on the water. Will try the beat again soon and see if I can do better.

Sunny day but water still cold and chilly in the shade. Nothing hatching and didn't see a single rise but fished the deeper runs slowly with a small silver jig head HE and a black spider on a dropper which seemed to work. Managed 4 trout with one decent size and small Chublet. Wading was very easy all the way up with some care and I can't wait for some warmer damper weather to get the trout looking up ! Loved it
