Another tough day with high water levels, but we managed a couple of our targeted species. The mud at the bottom of the track down to the fishery provided us with a sporting end to the day getting our car back up.

3 rainbows although I was hoping for brownies. Fished the bay and point by the boat launch areas. All fish took a slightly weighted small nymph on the point.

Well gave the Llandewi beat of the Ithon a bash this morning , looking reasonable on the gauge map, reading 0.384 so that could be fished very nicely with nymphs . . .

My prediction was bang on !!! Got there at ten bimbled down to the rough start of the beat and river was pushing through at a fair old pace but clear with that usual Ithon brown tinge . . .

Got going with a single eighteen home tied tungsten nymph , and had success not from grayling but very feisty eight to ten inch trout , lovely condition and slipped back in for their coital activities to commence !!!!!!!

Good fun and only had one twenty minute downpour , after that some nice sun , did try a couple of different dries , Adam's and CDC and Elk but no takers in some lovely streamy water . . . Back to the nymphs and three of my tyings were successful , must be the bit of bright red and pink.in them perhaps. . . . Seven brownies to the net unfortunately no ladies today but river looking superb , will be back very soon when this weather settles down a bit , a fun three hours spot on !!!!

Short session 10-12 for me and happy to catch 2 barbel 2 chub and an eel on a mixture of meat and pellet. Others stayed a little longer for 3 chub and a barbel. Stayed in the hut field as water very high though dropping - about 1.7 m. Didn’t fancy the walk to wooded section on this occasion- May have been too fast down there.

When you are fishing for Barbel you really don’t expect to hook a 14lb pike but that’s what happened today! True enough it took the bait when I was retrieving to refill the feeder and cast out again. What was more amazing is that it didn’t bite through the 8 lb hook link! That was the second of two pike caught (the first one was only about 4lb). My mate caught two barbel 7lb and 5lb. And lost a third.
