Fished 5-7pm from approximately two thirds of the way down the beat. River very low and the impact of winter floods notable as previously un-wadable holes now filled in and several fallen trees blocking wading progress upstream. No fish rising at all. Nothing, even with clouds of hatches. No true mayfly yet. Managed 2 stunning wbt close to the top of beat to a nymph under a Klinkhammer. Although the above might seem a bit negative....I had the best 2 hours fishing that I can remember! Just so good to be out, wildlife, cool water and waders not leaking! Fantastic!

Great to be out again,bit rusty,but very enjoyable. River very low and clear, looks like quite a it of flood damage to banks and trees, a lot have been removed. As to the fish l am afraid they did not show. Just a couple of decent rises covered under the willows, but not interested in my offerings. Mainly clink and dink, missed one good take later in day when mayflies appeared in small numbers. Be back when we have a bit more water in river. A great beat thanks wyes dusk.

River very low and clear, lots of flood damage to banks and trees,but tidied up. Two rises covered but not playing and missed one. Klink and dink most of time but later a. Few mayflies appeared. All in a lovely beat very enjoyable and great to be out. Thank you wyes dusk.

No fish seen or caught. A pleasure to be out in the May sunshine.

What a relief to be able to go fishing again, I had never visitied this beat before, so it was a new experience.
The river was fairly low and a little cloudy, algae was evident on the bed, especially when wading and becoming surrounded by floating algae dislodged from the gravel.
Fly life was sparse, with only a handfull olives hatching all day, rises were also sporadic and there wasn't a single fish feeding conistently.
However I did manage to catch a couple of trout, one on a Parachute Adams, and another on a tungsten bead GRHE nymph.
They weren't large circa 8 inches, but were most welcome.
It was just really good to be out with a rod in my hand exploring a new place to me.
The beat was fairly tight fishing along most of it's length, perhaps a recommendation on rod length/weight should be included in the beat details.
Anyway an excellent escape from all the madness all the same.
Thank you again Wye and Usk foundation.
