Fished the river from Abercanaid up. River was gin clear but opted for Klink and dink to start off with in some fast runs. Later in the day a good hatch of ldo's came on and switched to my ldo pattern. Managed to catch some great fish from 1lb up to 4lb plus. Just wish that I could post photo's on here.

Wonderful beat, good access and stunning scenery. Fished for 8 hours and only saw two fish rise so a quiet day but will definitely be back again. Oh, and pack your machette for the upper woodland area if you intend to venture upstream!

A pleasant day but no sign of salmon.

Fished res yesterday (fri), weather nice and warm. Fished house side of res cast in at 8.10 first fish on bank at 8.15 thought good start to day had 2 more by 9 o clock then the eclipse started went very cold and for some reason fish stopped feeding until about 2 o clock. Caught 3 more by 4.30 decided to pack up all in all great day out spoke to Rangers, nice to see how pleasant they are they also do a good job of keeping this lovely res clean and & tidy hope luck stays next time I fish.

Few hours fishing, river running gin clear. No fish seen or caught. Spring is around the corner.

Nice sunny day with water clear and low but no fish showing.

Fishing during an eclipse was an experience... even more so when a fish took the fly. Unfortunately, it was one of those on and off moments lasting 10 seconds or so. I would hazard it was a pike rather than a fish by the strength and characteristics of the take, but still an exciting moment.
The water was rather too high for the beat, but a good day out in some welcome sunshine. Good to see some maintenance on the beat in recent times.

Melt water and bright sunlight made for a challenging days fishing! Both fish at a lb. trickle of LDO and MB but nothing rising to them. Fish had on tungsten hares ears

3 fish on fly, gold head bibio. Flat calm and sunny made fishing very hard in afternoon.

Used a small nymph in morning and with a few LDO's in afternoon switched to dry fly - but nothing seen or caught.
River very clear and low for March and water cold.
Probably too early in season for the upper Lugg beats.
