A few fish showing although I coulndt tempt them to take
Better luck next time

There are definitely more interesting, better value and prettier beats for trout in the WUF scheme so I probably wouldn't return. The much vaunted walkway is in my view a decaying eyesore which does nothing for the Usk. Nothing much rising so nymphs accounted for two decent fish, both from the glide rather than the streamy water.

River at a perfect height for a salmon ;dropping and clearing saw one fish in the tail of Island stream and one fish in the fast water below ashtree pool no luck on the salmon but caught nine trout mainly on the swing with salmon flies

My first booking on this lovely stretch. Four or five fish showing at hut but dropping river did n't encourage them to chase a fly. A few chub to fly at bottom of beat. One fish came for fly just below surface but I think it was good trout.

3 Chub

Fished nymphs through the Rectory or inniswye most trout caught in the Millstream area and the Rectory pot. Fished size 14 ptn and grhe. No action on the dries. 12 fish up to 1.5 lbs with interesting variations in spots photographed. This is a wonderful beat and three hours fishing the head and then the tail of one pool served as a tantilising introduction to its amazing potential to hold top quality specimen fish. I am delighted to have the chance to fish it during the WUF conference. Incidentally the conference was brilliant and a testament to a strong team of individuals who have suceeded in implementing a comprehensive restoration program for the Wye and Usk which will yield benefits to society for generations to come

Laura's second try of catching a Salmon and a 10 lb Salmon was landed and returned caught on a spinner. Redbrook has been hot all week lots jumping that gives you hope.

River good, fish rising, none caught, fished at Aberfan foot bridge, it is difficult to get down to the river at this point and the amount of rubbish in the river is disturbing
