Feedback & Reports

Fished up from confluence for about 2 hours. Did not see any signs of life but did see a very large stone fly.

Wall-to-wall sunshine doesn't generally make for the best fishing conditions, but was nonetheless welcome. Especially good to see newly arrived house and sand martins. Occasional March Brown and LDO but otherwise little hatching. Six brown trout to 12", mostly on nymph. All returned.

Lovely warm day - plenty of grannom about between 1pm and 2.30 but no fish seen.

Sunny and warm on the Usk today. A few olives hatching at intervals from our start at noon until about 4 but not enough to bring fish to the surface in any number. Three trout to a beadhead hare's ear, two briefly hooked and lost and four or five plucks.

Good day fishing.. 2 lb , 1 1/2 lb and 3 at 1lb. Beautiful looking fish

Forecast weather did not materialise. Flogged away for hours nymphing under a bright sun and in gin clear water. No chance and so it proved.

Beautiful spring day--big hatch of grannom. No salmon seen or felt

Determined nymphing lost two, but an early afternoon hatch of largish dark stonefly (!) brought one kind 14 incher to the surface and thereafter net. Very different from a few weeks earlier where fly and fish were far more in evidence.

Nil return but a lovely day all the same. Glorious countryside.

This was my first day on the Wye this season due to the flooding which began the week the season started. The water was at a good height, and there was a large amount of fly life which was good to see. There were few takers however. I saw just a couple of trout but more grayling, I think they were.
I saw no salmon. I hooked a couple of trout, one of which was a good 2lb but lost both. Beautiful stretch of water. I am longing to return !
