Short session at lunch break. 3 fish on the duo, best 15 inches and a very well conditioned fish. The odd MB on the water but very few risers.

10lb fish from Weirend beat of Ross AC. Steve was fishing a Willie Gunn Snaelda tube fly.

1 Salmon

Went to the top of the beat to start. Fished downstream for a few hundred yards. Had one pull but it did,nt stick. At midday went the other end of the beat but no joy. No hatch and no fish in evidence. Progress upstream very difficult due to overgrown banks

Tried dry (with March brown) and wet (gold headed nymph)- no joy

1 Brown trout and 1 Grayling on a red neck ptn at the start of the day. Then at 12:30 a hatch of March Brown and LDO started and then the wind picked up and put them back down. There was an occasional fish rising so I put a very delicate small dry fly with cdc wings which was smashed on the first cast by an 8 inch wbt. Unfortunately the fly was destroyed by the trout so I had to compromise and use a similar fly, without the same result. The March Browns and LDO’s continued to hatch sporadically throughout the afternoon until we left at 4pm.
Final tally was 3 Grayling and 5 Brown trout, it was a pleasure to take fish off the surface again, happy days!

Our first visit to the Pandy beat of the Honduu. Although we are used to small river fishing, we found the beat 'challenging'! There was a good push of clear water coming down which made fishing difficult in the shallower runs. The few pools and deep runs did produce some takes but with only one fish netted it was a tough day. Appreciating that this beat is rarely fished, there are many overhanging trees which really do need a trim.

No fish seen or touched. Height 1ft 6ins , water clear. An otter in Dolmeudwy twice surfaced so close that I could have touched it with my rod tip.

River gin clear and falling. Good hatch of flies around mid day with a few fish rising but cold downstream wind didn't help.
Still a nice day to be out on a nice beat.
