Water clear , weather cool and overcast with occassional sunny interlude. Fished 11am - 3pm. Only one or two rises seen. No significant hatch. A few sedge about. The one rising fish that was cast to, came again for a Grey Wulff but failed to connect!
Lovely to be on the Usk again but how difficult it can be! Back later in the week for more self induced punishment!

I was late to this beat having fished in another area am. Had my 80th birthday recently and feel physically limited so decided just to recce. The river looked OK but access could be tricky, in places. Shall return with waders and light gear. Owner friendly and helpful with parking. Lovely spot.

An unseasonably cold and blustery day for June. Only found a few fish rising, managed two on the dry fly and one on the nymph between us. Despite the weather this beats a lovely place to spend a few hours.

Caught some really nice trout up to 1. 5lb.
All trout were caught euro nymph fishing on pink tags.

BEWARE OF THE COWS, if you park in the field and there are cows present, don't stray to far from your vehicle, I did today and the cows licked my car to death damaging some of the bodywork. This will be reported to the fishing passport head office.

Weather varied from sunny to cloudy to spitting and gusting winds, sporadic rises on the glides, fish caught on nymph suspended under klinkhammer but missed a number of takes and lost a couple on the dry.

Bright sunny day, water below 1’ of the Llanstephan gauge. 3 fish hooked - none to the net. A frustrating day.

A challenging beat that lives up to its description - lots of scrambling over and under fallen trees and up the brook. Was unable to locate any beat markers (white posts in the description) so went by a map estimate.
