River perfect so no excuses just one of those days when you feel that your not doing something right had one barbel and one chub both on pek it's a great spot with plenty of fish disappointed with my own inadequacy back next week cheers

1 Barbel, 1 Chub

Despite the rain during the week the river wasn’t really carrying any extra water, decided to start with casters for the first couple of hours but only caught small chub and dace. A switch to pellet and meat eventually got the barbel feeding around 1pm, caught 7 in total up to 8lb 13oz, an enjoyable days fishing.

7 Barbel, 6 Chub, 2 Other

After moving downstream from the woods section fish came steadily throughout the day. A move at the end of the day above the woods provided one more. All fish caught on pellet, the largest being around 8 1/2lb.

River looked good, a bit coloured and dropping. Found about five coloured fish jumping in Martins pool but didn't have any offers. Great day on a lovely beat though.

1 Barbel

Small grilse about 4lb after work this evening on a polar Usk grub

1 Salmon

Don't know which river god I have pleased or how, but s/he was certainly with me today. Good flow in the river with a brown stain, the sun shone most of the day, even the breeze was mostly upstream. A lovely autumn day. Saw a few flies around so started with an adams klink size 16, nothing till about midday. Only saw the odd rise from then on, but the trout in virtually every glide and pool was willing to attack the adams, until I reached the end of the beat at about 5.00, not having changed my fly. Eventually landed 18, 8" to several at about 14", all fighting fit. Lost about half a dozen more, they were either lightly hooked or performed aerial aerobatics. And I missed others. All in all, a glorious end to the season with memories for the winter!!

River getting to a nice level at last after the recent rain. All grayling in the 7-8" range on Ptn and snipe and purple. Trees taking on some autumn colours making this secluded valley even nicer. Several dippers about and one mink.

1 Trout, 4 Grayling
