Arrived for 2nd days fishing to find river had risen 6 to 8 inches overnight. CR fished shallow water along concrete walk way for 9 barbel mostly taken on corn. SB fished deeper water above the croys on the opposite bank for 8 barbel and 1 chub using feeder and pellet.

Lovely day, beautiful river. Some fish rising (very few though); but nothing caught. We were on dry fly.
The good news is we can only improve from here.

River up due to recent rains so a fair amount of debris coming down. Fished from lunch time until dark. All fish caught on running lead or feeder.

Hooked and lost a salmon in Dolmeudwy---small Red Frances

Fished a number of swims both above and below the wood, having braved the long and arduous walk and very steep hill. River was in good condition but bites were at a premium. We managed 2 barbel each, best 8lb, on pellet based hook baits.

Two trout to 3/4 lb on a beadhead GRHE nymph - missed several others. A good day.

2 barbel caught late afternoon on pellets. Little bit of extra water and quite a bit of weed debris. Generally a good day with only one light shower and very few canoeists.

Conditions looked promising when we arrived at around 10am and we weren't disappointed.
We fished pellets and feeder tactics and caught barbel throughout the day with a flurry of activity coming towards the end.
The biggest was caught by Paulo who ended the day with a magnificent barbel of 10lb 4oz. He caught 7 in total and I had 9.
All fish were hard fighting and in great condition.
