River very very low. Wouldnt advice anyone to book this beat until a good rainfall. I walked up and down the full beat looking for good hole but non existed. Very sad to see such beautiful river with such low water level.

A stiff downstream wind made the day feel much cooler than it was with intermittent rain in the morning and early afternoon.
Reasonable numbers of upwings hatching but no interest from the fish. We had a couple of grayling (12" & 14") from the bottom end of the beat on PTN and a large black nymph followed by a couple of decent pulls in the Cillau falls, but nothing else at all after midday.

A salmon splashed once in Erwood Pool mid-morning. It wasn't tempted by any of my offerings, unlike the trout. There was a steady drift of mayfly on the cool breeze and this intensified for the evening rise. A frustrating session where the trout seemed to play with the fly - too wise for an artificial pattern it seemed. A very enjoyable day on this lovely beat.

Note - the boards are treacherous in places (rotten). They ought to be replaced. Come on landowner(s)! - a little bit of investment this summer will prevent avoidable accidents.

WUF note we are on the case.....

Weather overnight changed so poor conditions in the morning. After lunch improved a little but wasn’t until late in afternoon saw several fish rising. No luck but easy to get too and pleasant day fishing.
