Hen fish about 12 pounds caught on fly

1 Salmon

River 1ft 10" dropping 2 " during the day. Near perfect conditions and the beat looked magnificent with the trees turning and Hay bluff looming over the Glangwy. Rod I was fishing with missed one in bridge first up and then after some phone calls I started in gravel catch. Less than 10 casts later a coloured 10-11lb cock took a #8 bann twitched back through the slow water at the top. Several others showed while fishing the pool. Broke for lunch and after went hunting ceps; successfully. Spent rest of the afternoon/evening helping others catch fish, successfully in one case, unsucessfully in the other.

1 Salmon

A beautiful Autumn afternoon with sunshine and light wind.
Started out fishing French leader with 2 nymphs and caught 4 grayling.
Towards the top of the beat I came across a few fish rising so switched to a#16 parachute Adams and caught another 5.
All fish like peas in a pod around 10 inches.
Also a handful of tiddlers not counted.

9 Grayling

51 x grayling to 16 inches, 7 x out of season trout (small). A mixture of methods, but nymphs generally outfishing the dry fly. Delightful sunshine and autumn scenery, but few fish rising naturally. A pleasant chat with 3 Belgian visitors who come to fish the Irfon every year.

51 Grayling

Nothing caught or seen. A wonderful days fishing nonetheless in near perfect conditions.

Fished very well today. Had 3 on bottom fishing and 1 on the fly. Really nice calm day. Plenty of fish rising, happy I got my bag limit. Would come back again loved it. Well stocked res.
Friend had 1 Another friend had 1 Another friend had 0 haha

4 Trout

catch 6 BT (4 x 13/14 inches), and 1 grayling (14 inches)... fished with nymphs, I did not spot a single fish raising.

6 Trout, 1 Grayling

A nicer day then the Saturday with very little wind and some sun. Fished Czech style again and tried to keep from snugging the bottom too much. Strong current made life difficult but managed a Grayling 10 inch. to top part of beat. Further down the beat nearer the bridge took a second but small fish and again all on a Jonathan Barnes pattern. Will try to copy this for the new season.

2 Grayling

Blanked today no barbel but had 6 yesterday I think the bright conditions and clearing water colour didn't help but I will be back

We had a few fish on the french leader and the golden killer salmon fly, mostly on drys like little olives. A Davis caught his first grayling, which he caught on the dry, had two in total, well done buddy.
