Feedback & Reports

A cool wind and increasingly overcast conditions meant very little fly life. Team of spiders with weighted nymph on point yielded nothing. Went through the whole menu with regards size and patterns, depth but still nothing doing, not even the faintest of tugs. We both saw an otter in different parts of the beat in the morning, we wanted to ask him where all the fish were but he slid off before we could speak! This is a stunningly beautiful beat with plenty of features and variety along its length. If I do return it will be later in the year as mid April is too early.

Warm and sunny at least for the first half of the day. River low and clear. A trickle of March Browns hatching through the middle of the day. Five trout to 15", all returned. Two on nymph and three on dry Jingler. Still can't find the fishing book at the gate referred to in the instructions.

WUF Note: The Fishing book has been removed, and we are going to update the beat details accordingly - Thanks

River crystal clear and running nicely, not much of a hatch and very few rises.

Another great day on the Wye.Conditions were good but very little fly life. A March Brown nymph did the trick.
