Feedback & Reports

A few olives about but nothing rising so lightly weighted nymphs seemed best. All trout were small fellows from the shallower runs. Tried going heavier and deeper to look for something bigger but to no avail.

Low water, clear. Not much of surface activity, got a pair of nice trouts 1.5-2.5lb on wet fly. All returned.

Beautiful bright Spring day and water gin clear and below 1 on the Glanusk gauge brought up fly and fish from 1230 in brief concentrated flurries. Rusty angler had a lovely if somewhat erratic time with 6+ to 15 inches. All done by 1500. Is there anywhere more pleasant on such a day?

Lovely day's fishing, water was clear and good height and the sun was out too. Caught and released 5 brown trout between two anglers on gold headed nymphs and hares ears. Great start to the season!

20lb ( weighed and photod) fresh silver cock salmon on home tied yellow belly imitation tube fly. Landed after two 60 yard runs and numerous cartwheels. The bottle of champagne kindly donated by WUF last year has finally been opened.

Cold cloudy day with rain in the air but came to nothing. A small hatch of LDO's at about two but only a couple of rises seen Had two trout of half and three quarters of a pound both on olive nymph just under the surface. Should have been more, lost at least five or six. Enjoyable day

No sign of a salmon but had a great day and will definitely be back when the level has dropped a little.
Thanks to Mick the gillie who was excellent.

LDO hatch at lunch but few rising fish. Awkward downstream wind.

Unfortunately didn't connect with anything, but this beat is a hidden gem. A huge amount of work has been done in managing the banks and virtually all areas of the beat are fishable by fly. Great welcome and lots of good advice from Nathan the ghillie. I can fully recommend this beat and I will definitely be returning.
