Feedback & Reports

A first visit and indeed a very scenic beat. The chocolate brown river didn't quite compliment the setting though. Two shad hooked and lost - spirited fighters aren't they. One possibly two salmon seen leaping but failed to trouble the score cards sadly. Will I return...that I'm very sure of but timed slightly better! Thank you regardless to you all the same.

Weather clear and sunny with slight upstream breeze. Water quite brown. flat waters were murky. Brecon level = 0.31.
Should've done better but could not find the touch. Found plenty of fish and hooked 8 but lost them all before the net.
I advised one canoeist that he was out of season and that there was hardly any water anyway. I can't believe some people. Still, he was polite and did leave the water - after I stood and watched him for a while.

Couple of hours in the evening. Few rising fish in the middle of the beat. I did not fancy braving the cows/bullocks.

The river was still a bit coloured from recent rain but was at a nice level (about 15" at Llanstephan I think). Not many flies about and very few fish rising so went with nymphs. Had two trout from the faster water, both very fit and lively at about 12". Lost 2-3 more.

My son Toby fished. Huge fly hatch. New fencing on long stretches has made huge difference already. Lots of feeding trout seen, but couldn't be tempted!

Nothing not even a bite.

Fabulous fish up to 15" all caught on grey wulff. Not many mayfly.
