Nil catch.

Despite generally hot and bright conditions, a great days fishing on an excellent beat. Fish caught in streamy sections and between Stone Catch and Lady Alexanders Catch on various nymphs. There was a small hatch around 10am and a couple of fish were missed on dry flies. Picked up a couple of bits of litter, a beer bottle and a lure box (otherwise the beat was immaculate) and pulled some Balsam.

An evening session on the lovely Lynfi Dulas which was still flowing quite well all things considered. The river bed was a bit gungy in places of low flow but wherever it picked up a bit the bed was clean. Turning over any stone or rock in the flow revealed very good numbers of little stone clinger nymphs and numbers of various large caddis and as always loads of the little micro caddis 'igloos'! Water condition is obviously pretty good still.

No mayfly showing (been &gone??) but some good clouds of spinner came over the river late on but not many got on the water.
A bit hard going with more trees and brash in the water now but still lots of deep pools/runs to have a go at. Having a good flick side roll cast here in the bag is very useful here. Did a bit of pruning here & there for the next guy down...and me too!

Just the 5 fish without trying too hard on a 16 tan cdc & elk, fishing it with tiny twitches got them going. Plenty more fluffed or lost !
Two of the fish would have gone to 12inchers, nice fish indeed for here and in super & hard fighting condition.

Just about caught the last of the lovely sunset away down the valley on the walkout up the hill . Very happy!
