had a couple of hours today, midday. all trout taking nymph in the faster water. trout switched on at 1 pm for an hour then it totally died. a huge amount of fly on the water , midge, olives, stonefly, sedge and also a few true mayfly but only one rise spotted. third time fishing here and am bewildered at the lack of rising fish. still a lovely stream to fish with a good flow .

A thoroughly enjoyable morning on the banks of the Usk at Abercynrig. This was also an opportunity to introduce my companion to fly fishing and although we had limited time on this occasion the experience was still well worth while.
Conditions weren't ideal with bright sunshine and lower water. Very few indications of rising fish, but we managed two small brownies were with a goldhead olive nymph, and the debutant of the party was suitably thrilled and no doubt hooked himself :)
Would return without hesitation simply for the outstanding eye-catching surroundings, never mind the thought of encountering more wonderful Usk trout.

Apart from the small bay below car park on that side is there any other bank fishing on the east side of the reservoir? A little more signage wouldn’t go amiss...

Fishing not possible due to river conditions muddied from previous days rain. Please confirm if this is declared a wash off?

nice day on the lake ,water down a little but enjoyed my day there no cathch today had one or misses fishing from bottom ,but i was a little disapointed about the number of miss use of the fake bait in use as i could see it floating in the water witch i thing was throwing the fish off more natueral bait

water condition good but not many fish showing - managed one to dry fly.

Another great day, the day started fine and still but an annoying downstream wind made things challenging in the afternoon.
A steady flow of fly life and active fish throughout the day. The biggest trout of the day was just over 2lb caught in very deep water.

On arrival our hearts sank as the river was coloured with no signs of rising fish. We struggled in the morning but in the afternoon, as the river was clearing, fish started to rise. We caught 16 trout between us all on dries, so ended the day on a high. A lovely beat, shame about an armada of canoes coming through at midday!

River low, no sign of fish. Wading difficult with large stone river bed.
