Feedback & Reports

A short session late morning to mid afternoon. River looked good, but little to no evidence of fly life. Prospected with dry fly. First fish came from a likely lie. The second was a cast to one of only two rises spotted all day. A bit quiet but enjoyable none the less. A few areas have been noticeably modified by the winter floods in terms of depth and missing trees.

No fish caught .Just a few fish caught around by me.

A lovely but tricky river to fish. Water very clear so fish were easily spooked. Saying that there weren't many fish around to spook, but fishing likely pools worked and landed 2 fish of a pound each. For the size of river it was nice catching fish of that size, both returned.

It probably was a decent day if it wasn't for a chilly steady northerly wind. We had 1 trout on nymph at the beginning of the beat then there was a hatch of olives at midday for about 1 hour which gave us few fishes of around a pound. After that the fishes stopped feeding. Despite covering lots of water we didn't have a single take on nymphs. I still need to decipher this river under the surface.

Beautiful location but where are the fish! My father, brother and I fished Penpont for two days beginning on April 23rd with only one trout caught between us all. We had a small hatch on April 23rd that lasted an hour or so and pricked the mouths of a couple of trout but brought nothing to the net. The next day between us we probably saw all of two rises on the river. My brother ultimately managed to bring a 3/4 lb brown to the net rigged up NZ style with the Klink and Dink just above the bridge. We fish a LOT and this is probably some of the toughest we've ever done.

My father, brother and I fished Fenni Fach on April 22nd with only one trout caught between us all. My brother caught a lovely 2lb brownie with his second or third cast of the day on a nymph pattern but otherwise it was tough going with plenty of wind and plenty of rain. We saw a few rises over the course of the rive including what may have been a salmon but the hatches were fairly sporadic.
