Late afternoon/evening session. We split up and fished different areas. Plenty of swims to try on this beat. Most fish caught on pellet and were fighting fit.
The buzzard and heron had a bit of a do over perching rights and the kingfisher kept brightening up proceedings. The mandarin ducks are so tame, you can have them feeding out of your hands. Great beat and looking forward to coming back in September.

Conditions looked near perfect and we had high hopes for a good day, but that was sitting in the car drivng to the venue. There was the odd fish topping looking down on the river by the chalet accompanied by a cool breeze. That was all we could put it down to was a cool breeze keeping the fish down, still it wasn't a disaster DC took all his fish on the dry and GC on spiders and ptn. Four fin perfect salmon parr and an occasional show by the grown ups get us amused throughout the day.
Many thanks to the Wye and Usk

River a little low and clear but pleasant overcast conditions, plenty of Chub but Barbel were a bit shy, Chub to 4lb. Barbel = 8lb 10oz, 7lb 12oz and about 4lb. Most fish before lunch and then evening. All fish on meat/pellet, fighting fit and a pleasure to catch.
