River low and weedy

2 Barbel, 1 Chub

River very low and clear, 6 angler on this section so not a lot of scope for moving about, 1 Barbel caught in the afternoon at 8lb 4oz. had to wait for other anglers to pack up before moving. A disappointing days fishing

1 Barbel

No salmon seen

13 Barbel, 7 Chub

7 Barbel

12lb cock, Llyn Em pool. 10lbs hen Middle Caban. Size 10 Bann shrimp. Epic battles in both cases, perhaps in anticipation of the extra water due following the rain today.

2 Salmon

A very wet day. All 3 Barbel were over 6lb the best being 8 lbs 5 oz all on feeder & pellet. The sun came out in the evening.

Day got off to hilarious start when herd of cows chased the car down the farm track then to my relief they veered right towards some feeding troughs. Parked up and went into boot to get gear sorted out, 15 seconds later removed head from boot only to find myself and car completely surrounded by 40 of the soon to be roast dinners. 1\2 dozen wanted to use car as scratching post, one had her head in the boot presumably after my sandwiches and one was chewing my backside when retrieving rest of gear from boot. Although a little unnerving I had a good laugh at my situation. Decided best bet in end was to set rod up by river in fear of catching an actual cow instead of the proverbial type.

On the fishing concentrated on top end of beat Dolmeudwy and orchard pools. Went through twice but no salmon seen or touched. Did get a little brownie on last cast which gave me a moment of false hope. Great day. Back again in 7days for another crack before end of season. Hopefully my four legged friends will be on supermarket shelf be then! Kidding!
