Feedback & Reports

No fish caught or seen; fly fished the morning with a variety of sink tips and poly leaders.

Nice four hours on the Dore. All but two trout and grayling fell to size 18 beadhead nymph. The two to dry fell for size 18 f-fly in dark natural cdc. As with all wild streams this beat also is carrying little water. The only ace card being it has many long deep glides and all takes came deep from these areas. This beat also seems not to be as overgrown as many others.
WUF Note: The Wild Streams Volunteers put in quite a few hours to clear Chanstone Court last winter. From this season's reports, it looks like their efforts have paid dividends!

15 Trout, 2 Grayling

The Abernant is a good beat for trout and grayling fishing (and from time to time with higher water levels it can be a place for the occasional salmon). It fished particularly well for me and while I used nymphs for most of the day I fished dry flies during the late afternoon and despite numerous rising fish I was not able to catch any on the dry. So all in all happy days on the Wye again.

River was too low for salmon.

I had a great day on the river Towy, caught 9 brown trout, 2 of which were just over 2lb. No salmon and no sea trout caught. All fish were released back to the water. Fishing with spinners sv lures.

2 x trout to 1.5 pounds, 7 x grayling to 0.75 pounds. River pretty low, strong showers through the day, and a general shortage of surface activity. OB's contribution was managing to miss three nice grayling risen to the dry fly. Meanwhile CB caught the rest on nymphs.
