river now quite low at 8'' on the Ross gauge, lot of the pools now effected by heavy weed growth and river clarity effected by algae with visibility roughly about 24" . although this seams a lot of problems we saw several salmon throughout the day both up and down stream of the car park with one hooked briefly. We all thought that if it was not for the algae bloom we would have caught today. 3 rods.

Fished for an hour in the morning and a similar time in late evening only on the part of the beat adjacent to the caravan park. Did not observe a lot of fish activity although managed to hook and lose 3 smallish trout on small dry. A cold upstream wind was probably not helpful. Nevertheless it is a nice stretch and I look forward to fishing it again.

7 x trout 6-12 inches, Monnow Gosling. Rise to mayfly began mid-afternoon, but generally rather quiet.

River in good condition, overcast with an upstream breeze. Fished the afternoon. Mayfly were hatching throughout but largely ignored by the fish. Enough evidence of feeding just below the surface to keep me interested. Six fish caught with several lost. Fishing duo style at one stage I managed to connect with two Grayling simultaneously, one to the elk hair dry and one to a black magic nymph. Quite an achievement bringing both to the net successfully!

3 Trout, 3 Grayling

All fish between 8 and 12 oz, taken on downstream nymph.

Lovely day on good stretch of river but few insects and trout not rising
