I didn’t arrive until late afternoon but the hot sunny weather and low river conditions made the fishing difficult. A few small fish rising in the evening to olive and mayfly spinners but no major rise despite a fair bit of fly life. A caught one small trout and rose a few more on a size 18 cdc grey olive pattern.

A great day with good fly life, however, not a single rise seen all day from 12 through to 8pm. All fish taken on a size 14 black nymph.

The very lovely little Lynfi Dulas never fails to disappoint , the trout this afternoon/evening went from 6" to 11" and in superb form !
I was hoping that the Mayfly would be on the up and up they where , high in the air ! Nothing really hatching all day and did try a may spinner pattern for openers but they weren't really having it so switched to the old stalwart size 16 para Adams and that did the business . Very well in fact , kept the same fly on all day , most unusual not to lose one to the trees ! Might frame that one....
Nothing much rising during the day (very bright but plenty of shade over the river here ) but fishing the fishy spots (and there are lots and lots of them here !) got the appropriate response , even if they didn't all stick.
Some very big clouds of olive spinner late in the evening , and Mayfly too, over the water and some spent fly got them going on top proper and was a joy to see and just sit and watch a time . Seems fish numbers are very good at this time , great.
Big numbers of bugs on the stones , all the usual suspects .
Didn't quite make it up to the runs and pools up to where the brook comes in , next time , it's usually very well worth the effort !
A fantastic and hugely varied beat .
