Gave up chasing salmon and had a few hours at the chapel catching a few grayling and trout on nymphs

3 Trout, 17 Grayling

My apologies for not filling in catch details sooner, but the cottage in which we were staying had only very sporadic internet access. I landed two salmon parr and six trout, mostly small, hooking four and losing four bigger ones. They were all caught on a flashback hares ear or an Adams. The most notable feature of the day was a cow paddling down the river towards me.

River in good condition and fished well all day despite the hot weather. Misty start in the bottom field just past the gate, had some barbel and chub including the day's best barbel of 8.06. Moved mid afternoon to the "steps"swim by the first gate again a mixture of barbel and chub. The barbel here were generally smaller including a 2lb fish. Method was ledgered pellet or 12 mm boilee with pellets in PVA bags.

As usual with this beat a very productive day.

11 Barbel, 10 Chub

River flow looked perfect but tough going. One barbel saved the day in the evening.

A nice afternoon session in the warm sunshine after setting up camp at Tan house farm.
Looked a bit better now after recent flush through but of course very low again .Not much moving on top but a few oncers here and there to give the game away .
A couple of uppper Monnow lovelies came to hand and a few more bounced off and some others moving in the real tight inaccessable stuff so happy with that to round the season off here .
Been a tough one for sure but seems the fish have just about held out . Hardly any flow seem to coming in from the Escley but upper beat water pushing in to the junction pool nicely .
Spent fair bit of time relishing the fine weather and admiring the start of the autumnal colours on the black mountains .!
It's a beautiful place here for sure.
