Lovely few hours late afternoon with my nephew fly fishing for the first time.

One very good fish - 1 1/2 to 2 lbs - from tail of rapids just downstream of footbridge.

No fish caught and few signs that said was there 11-16:00. What great place to spend a few hours trying to fish. Access from parking to downstream limited was a little difficult but still a cracking day.

Fishing was hard very few rising fish as very little hatching so persevered with the nymphs.

My first time on the Wye. A lovely beat. A little low. Quite tricky wading, easier once I'd fashioned a Hazel staff. I was determined to catch today. No fishing showing on the surface at all so I fished various nymphs in every likely looking piece of water. My persistence was rewarded with three Brown Trout, the largest about 45 cm / 750g A personal best. Went home very happy. Thanks.

Late afternoon start on a warm overcast day. Started off with the klink and dink method that produced 3 healthy 10" fish in quick succession, all on the hares ear nymph. A baron 2 hrs came to an end with a lovely 16" fish, again on the nymph which lept out the water at least 6 times before tiring and being netted and returned safely without any hand contact. As the sun dropped the spinners were on the wing and the fish were obliging. 5 more 10" to 12" fish returned and many more lost or missed. I love evening this time of the year.

Booked beat and managed to fish couple hours before a phone call... Small fish rising but no takes unfortunately.

Fished the Taf Fechan. Water was very low low so targeted the riffly/pocket water with a size 14 olive klinkhammer. Managed to pick a dozen or so small wbt up to 1/4lb. I then snuck off on the main river for a couple of hours. The main river was very low so stuck to the same tactics in the faster water but this time with a Klink and dink. Managed to pick off up yo 20 wbt up to 2lb.

One small brownie took a pheasant tail nymph and one larger of about 12 inches took a mayfly imitation. I was fishing downstream of Merthyr, very pretty beat that I will fish again
