Feedback & Reports

No rain but dark clouds, windy, water still pushing through at a pace. I only fished dries all day. Trout caught on blue dun. Massive hatches in afternoon, nothing in morning. Saw a few small mayfly. Fish not interested in them yet.
All in all a good day. If weather improves should be smashing next week.

Water was quite coloured in the forenoon, tried nymphs with no success, afternoon hatches of some Mayfly and some larger black flies (no idea what they were) fish started to raise even with the water colour, caught 4 small trout all on black parachute size 14. Not much bank access to this beat so wading was essential, the water was quite high after the week of rain so wading was deep and quite tricky with the flow. Lovely area. Well worth a visit. (Remember waders).

First time on this beat and a dry day at last. River still quite high but fishable. Plenty of fly life and a few fish rising. A nice 7” WBT netted and safely returned. One fish lost and another missed. The barbed wire and access make it a bit of a challenge but an enjoyable afternoon in beautiful countryside.

High river with lots of colour, no luck with nymph. Some fish rising for unknown black flies even with the colour. Took 4 small trout on black parachute. This river is almost impossible and hard to fish without chest waders. Hard wading due to levels and flow. Lovely area.

River well up and very coloured. Managed to catch a few in the margins. Mayfly and nymph.

11 trout from 8 inches to2lb. 9 on French leader fish were hard on the deck in the afternoon they half heartedly came up and had two on spider's. If all fish were landed would have been closer to twenty. Great day. Dinas rarely disappoints.

Very clear water and quite low considering recent heavy rain. Tried various techniques for 6 hours, but not a sign of a fish. The most promising looking bit where the small river joins towards the top of the beat is not included for some reason.

What’s difference a day makes! Not a single trout compared to yesterday, water levels receding and slightly easier to get out into the river
