Only had couple of hours fishing on this stunning beat. Caught a couple of trout. Fished the hotspots with flying c. A Salmon showed off the wayward willow lie enjoyed spinning the Llangoed pool & the rapids below. Couple of fish showing in the Llangoed pool. Will defo fish this beat again hopefully for the day with the fly rod.

Beautiful day on beautiful water. Excellent beats, well managed and maintained. A nice catch of barbel and chub, with a couple of ten pounders. Highly recommended. Lots of grilse bouncing through, and a few coloured up residents on show. Millstone was full of grilse.

Water quite low & limited amount of water fishable with the fly. Nothing seen nor touched unfortunately.

Water quite low & only 40 metres of fly fishing in truth. One fish of about 14lbs. & coloured on for 30 seconds or so. One other 'knock'. Nothing else seen.

Very difficult fishing, not a lot of action on the water
first few small (about 15 cm) trouts on a nymh, late on the evening 3 on a dry fly

Excellent few hours fishing on this stunning beat caught 12lb fairly fresh hen fish on flying C from the Spring pool gutter very lightly hooked was out of the water more than in hook came out in net. Caught another in the Bridge pool hen fish of 15lb just starting to colour again very lightly hooked on Flying C. Finished fishing for the day at 8.45am.

Recced the top end of the beat. Access from left bank, above the bridge very tricky - didn't try the RH bank. Lovely Kingfisher. Then went downstream of the bridge and met a friendly fellow angler fishing the White Swan beat (non-fishing but access for W&U) = also a member of W & U. Saw a large flock of GOOSANDERS which made themselves scarce pretty quickly - other angler said they're about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Had a good value lunch at the Severn Arms and some advice from the owner George. Fished below the footbridge for a couple of hours - water a tinge coloured but a reasonable flow/height and very fishable - fish seemed very wary but had two small brownies and a salmon parr on nymphs. Saw a caravan park so perhaps this part of the beat gets some attention. George said that a lower beat should be online soon.
