Feedback & Reports

The river was low and clear. Weather bright and breezy. Little showing and I failed to find a really consistent tactic. Three fish to hand - one to a small PTN the others to an Adams and a Klinkhammer. Best fish a plump, healthy 12". Raised, pricked and lost half a dozen more from water under overhanging branches.

Beautiful day, great stretch of water. Located fish rising in deep pool so cast dry fly. 3rd cast fish took but lost it almost immediately. Eventually retiring to the car for lunch but unfortunately watched a cormorant land right by the pool! We returned to fishing, disturbing the cormorant. No fish spotted thereafter. No signs of fish whatever, seen the rest of the day!!!

River was low and clear, we tried most options all to no avail sadly, must do better next season!

Very disappointed in the days fishing. Tried a multitude of flies in windy conditions, but not a single pull all day. Discussed with several other anglers on the reservoir all of whom stated the same. Poor days fishing.

Another lovely day, tricky fishing day with the wind, many misses!
Sunday- Craig Llyn unfortunately very coloured today. Kindly invited as guest of Sean to fish a fantastic stretch of the Elan courtesy of Richard. Another great day on a beautiful water with lovely wild brownies. Big thank you to Dave and Tom too for a great day. Look forward to seeing you again!

Mostly small WBT, 2 at 1lb

9 Trout

Last trout trip this year, very pleasant day with the Honddu running clear but not too low. Small number of varied flies about but no rises. Explored the runs mainly with an iron blue para and landed 9 trout, from 7" to 12" - all very fit! Spring seems a long way off now....

Fished the meadow from mid afternoon until dark. River still quite low and clear.

2 Barbel, 1 Chub

Very small coloured fish, around 4lb from Upper end of beat on small fly. No fish showing but river in lovely condition.

Second day on the stretch after a successful day on Thursday. Same tackle, same bait, same swims, same weather but only one small chub all day. I guess that sums up river fishing! Will I return? Of coarse I will.
I would suggest a rope and spiral dog tether for those more mature anglers as access to some of the swims can get very slippy if wet and the steps are eroded.
