Nyth & Ter Celyn - Evelyn Cowles caught a 16lb (87cm) cock fish in the Cafn stream, under the wonderful casting guidance of Chris Price. She's taking many photos and memories back to Virginia, USA.

Fishing Gravel catch at 6.30pm the fish took second cast, mid-stream in very slack water at the top of the pool. Cock fish 18lbs (36") on #10 Silver Stoats Tail double. Height at circa 1ft 4"

1 Salmon, 1 Trout

Caught and safely returned a 7lbs Hen Salmon today. Fish took a #12 Cascade Double and gave a good account of itself. River in superb condition and should fish well with the fly in the next couple of days.

9 lb Hen fish,only slightly coloured from Muggs at 5pm on a Silver Stoat #10 (with flash !),the 63rd fish for the beat this season.

River .57 on the gauge and dropping. Wind gusting to excess of 20 mph across the river into our faces making casting very difficult indeed at times. However, we persevered and we're rewarded with one o.o.s. trout each of around a lb and a grayling each of 1 1/2 lb plus eight fingerlings shared between us. DC caught his fish on drys and GC on nymphs.
As with all rivers, given the right conditions this beautiful stretch of water would reward the angler handsomely. As always, thanks to the owner and the Wye and Usk for the opportunity to spend the day here.

2 Trout, 10 Grayling

No fish caught or seen.

15lb and 10lb, both cock fish.

First time fishing Lower Glanwye and the notes are spot on, not the best access along the bank and wading is tricky mainly on bedrock fishing into the gutters. I started in Stepping Stones and towards the tail of the pool I had a good take which resulted in a 12lb hen, which like yesterdays fish was just starting to colour. Swam off strongly. Caught on a 1 inch cascade tube. Quite a few fish showing, mainly in the pools in the middle of the beat.

Although the river level had dropped following high water levels a few days earlier, the water in front of us was very fast and we suffered with a large amount of leaves coming down and pulling the feeders out of position. We fished from 10am till 7pm but neither of us had so much as a touch all day. Usually a banker venue for us but not on this occasion sadly.
