2 BT around 10 inches caught (on spider patterns) and returned safely. Hardly any surface activity to speak of but an enjoyable day in nature overall!!!

First outing since August and it showed, a few tugs on small GRHE but could only convert one to hand. Hope my reactions improve for the rest of the weekend!

First time on this beat and it took me a couple of hours of fishing to brush up on my small river skills. So after hooking more than a few trees the roll casts started to work and a black tung beadheaded PTN fished on a greased leader caught me three trout and one OOS grayling. A cold day with no hatch to speak of.

3 Trout, 1 Grayling

Five trout between 4 inches and 8 inches all caught on goldhead nymphs. The fish seemed to prefer the deep holes. There were a few sporadic rises but no real hatch. Quite bright and sunny with good water clarity. Clearance work much appreciated.

First time on this water and with 3 hours to spare, I fished the top of the beat spinning. No fish to report.

Wall to wall sunshine and blue sky (mid 60s), water at around 1'6" on Llanstephan gauge (46F-48F), falling slowly, clear to out of depth with green ting.
Many Trout rising for brown upwing flies between 11:00 - 13:00.
Fished F/S3 & F/S1 with 1" black/yellow/silver tubes.
No Salmon seen. Some difficult wading; as much spinning water as fly water on this beat at this height.

A tricky day. Lovely weather but not much going on above or below water. Just a few LDOs and the odd March Brown about and only a handful of rises. I had no success nymphing but managed to tempt one 8" wbt with a Parachute Adams, safely returned. Missed another couple of takes. Water levels seem very low for this time of year.
