Dry fly Trout 15 ins

Snapped my rod tip within two hours of fishing, set the trout rod up but wasn't in the mood.

A glorious day on a lovely stretch of river that I have previously only fished for grayling, but there are plenty of fesity trout too. Quite a bit of fly life around in in the early afternoon and a few rising fish, so two or three caught on dries the rest on a GRHE nymph. River very low. Wading can be tricky in places. Rock is not slippery, just slabs of bedrock with awkward steps, but the strata helps create the deep gutters that stay cool in low flows so can't complain. The trout seem to like the gutters.

Beautiful day, quiet but bright. 1 Chubb raised the pulse for a second.

Water low and gin clear 1' on guage. No fish seen. Very bright and hot day. Salmon fishing waste of time really but long way to travel from Kent. Enjoyed the day very much and impressed with the fishery. Booked this beat when the Wye was in flood.

Medium sized trouts, all with cdc dries. Biggest 0.75kg

Wet spider initially, one take but no connection. Changed to dry fly as there was some fly on the water. There was some Grannon hatching and a few Olives. There was an intermittent rise, most of it on the smoother water. A lovely beat to fish and a thoroughly enjoyable day out. Good wading and lots of wildlife to see. Definitely worth another visit.

I returned to the river today and spent some time watching the water. Nothing was rising so I left without fishing. I’ll be back another time, this time the river beat me twice.

Excellent days fishing, 6 fish caught on a 3 cast with diawls and a hot orange booby on a fast glass line.
