Feedback & Reports

One fish showing lower Rock Pool. Went through with both fly and spinner but didn't move anything. Clear, low water and bright. Hard work but a great day none the less. Beautiful beat.

Mostly 1/2lb fish, 1 at 2lb

Fished Cregrina below the bridge for 2 hours in the morning but with no fish caught. Getting to the bottom of beat quite tricky but worth persevering down the very steep banks to a very wild (and I suspect little-fished) beat. Disturbed an unidentified bird of prey (Buzzard?) off one of the stream mini-cliffs which was quite a shock - those birds are huge close-up! A downpour at noon signalled an early lunch and a move to Hergest for the afternoon.

After fishing Cregrina in the morning I moved to Hergest for my last trout fish of the year :-( and like Thursday on Aberedw, the fish only turned up in the afternoon. I have caught a lot of fish on the Edw this year, mostly around 10". Today most fish were on 12" with only one less than that. One was more. I thought I had caught my largest Edw fish yesterday but the best of the day was 14" Edw trophy from shallow fast moving water on a CDC dry. Goodbye and thanks to the Edw until next year.

Two salmon from Tyr Celyn at 10 and 12lbs. Two more lost. Amazing fishing considering the low water.

Bright clear day. Water levels quite low and very clear. Dave's first Wye barbel at 6lb 14oz. Plenty of wildlife, a mink, swans, kingfishers, bats and a rare albino pheasant.
