River at .20 and pushing through quite strongly, no real sign of fish. 4 small trout and 2 others around 9-10”.
Several others shook themselves off partly due to lack of attention and also fishing barbless hooks.
Used #22 cdc something’s, #18 Klink, Duo with #18 tungsten hares ear. No sign of the Ladies.

First time in the usk, access is really difficult for the first half of the beat from Ashford house , but gets easier as you move towards the bridge bailiff said “river was up slightly on normal level “ plenty of pale watery’s coming off , no activity on the surface, will try again maybe later on in the day next time , enjoyed the day tho.

Great day at the brook; 24 trout between 5 -10 inches. All took a size 14 Klinkhammer, fished single due to the extremely low level of the brook. Majority of the fish came from slack water and required a stealthy approach. Insect were hatching throughout the late morning / early afternoon, mixed with occasional falling-terrestrial. There were only two rises to the hatches but the fish happily came up for the Klink, fished blind.
As expected for the bank holiday Monday, the public footpath was very busy with families walking, cycling, and walking the dogs. Majority were friendly and polite. Quite lucky to only have two dogs joining me in the water.

Caught fish throughout the day. Great to see Andy the gamekeeper who always gives good advice. River in good condition and falling but still with some colour.

A few hours spent this evening on the Honddu. The water was up a bit, in some runs it was really pushing through. Great conditions for nymphing with a French leader. Lots of action with some surprisingly big fish about. Best 1lb 12oz, 2 x 1lb 1/4, 1 x 1lb 6oz (weighed in net) and numerous fish of between 9 and 12 inches.
