A Fish seen running abernant stream, but no joy

Water too high but persevered with the fly and in fact had a Salmon on briefly, alas, it came off after a few head shakes. Enjoyed the day in spite of the incessant rain. Joe the Ghillie was was very helpful, professional and good company.

Was fishing when guy from canal club leaned over canal bridge and told me Wye and Usk have no right to fish above canal bridge. Wye and Usk info says can fish canal section (as well) on Friday and indeed that’s what we booked. Of course this isn’t Wye and Usk fault but if Wye and Usk has right to share a beat it would be good if members of the club sharing knew this also. Same thing happened at Abercamlais beat.

Sorry for late return, did phone it in on the day. 41” fresh Salmon estimated on the day at 22lb but an average from three different length scales would suggest more like 25lb, taken on SHFC from top of Gravel Catch near to Copper Beech. Tried fly initially but 40 to 45 yard cast needed to cover properly which on the day with a slight upstream breeze was not possible. Absolutely beautiful fish and my PB. Saw at least a dozen fish in The pool and tail with one beauty jumping over my fly line 15 yards away. River around 2 foot with descent clarity.

Slightly high water but quite clear. No Salmon seen, conditions average - drizzle and cool. 2 trout mis-caught upstream of waterfall on black/white conehead and 1 near suspension bridge. Nice beat, will return with hopefully more sucess
