First time on this beat and what a wonderful secluded spot, fish taken on goldhead pheasant tail nymphs grey duns and F-Fly. Will definitely be back later in the season.

Good day on stream, some small fish in the deeper pools but easly spooked.

Fabulous day on the Wye which was very low, the weather chilly and overcast. On arriving I spotted fish topping in the deep water at the bottom of the first field so made my way down, I had one on a dry after a lot of effort and decided I should be catching more so switched to a Klinkhamer with a gold head hares ear underneath and took another on the hares ear. Decided to make my way up stream to the faster water and found fish taking olives off the surface, I switched to a traditional style dry and didn't stop catching, fantastic dry fly fishing. I had a break to explore the rest of the beat and lost a small trout before returning to the fast water and taking trout after trout, I lost count but quite easily had 18+ and two out of season Grayling.
A day to remember thank you WUF.

River clear and very low, less than a foot on the Cilmery gauge. Slightly overcast. Fish hard to find from 1pm til 4pm when the first of 4 grayling took a weighted nymph with an orange bead. Three more grayling in the next hour with the best at 16", a cock fish with two fresh wounds on its flank. This fish came from surprisingly shallow water incidentally, no more than 6" I would say. I switched between nymphing and dry fly at intervals during the day, encouraged by the presence of a trickle of olives of various hue but only had one take, trout of 8" that took a Jingler. Left the beat at 6pm.

It's a great river but hard on my legs :) Level of water was lower then a month ago. Fish seems to feed for a short periods then they tend to take several hours break. Method spin. Caught and landed one 40+ (C&R) many came off right away.

Ps I really like this online Fishing Passport service.

No luck - couple of fish rising and a few takes. Water is crystal clear so long leaders and stealth needed
