Feedback & Reports

Did not catch anything.

One 6lb barbel caught today. We did have the ticket for yesterday as well and the report submitted then reflects what happened today also.
Thanks again for a great weekend.

1 Barbel

4 of the fish came in the first 2 hours and the others dotted through the day.

5 Barbel, 3 Chub

Pellet feeder in middle of wood, nothing in all other pegs.

4 Barbel, 4 Chub

First Time on Craig Llyn so spent a lot of time walking the whole beat to suss it out. A lovely stretch, with some deep pools and also some excellent long runs a few feet deep which were perfect for grayling. I caught a few fish here and there on deep fished Jig Patterns and a couple higher up in the water. I'm sure there are some sizable fish here, the best of the day being a fine grayling just over 2lb, and will be back for more.

All fish fell to pellet or boilie. The chub were caught from various swims along the beat & barbel came from 1 swim near the pylon. River was up about three feet going through quite fast.

3 Barbel, 7 Chub

Arrived early after a couple hours drive. Found the river in the condition expected. Chocolate brown and pushing through at a rate of knots. Baited up and fished swims in the lower beat. Due to the conditions, we are only fishing a few metres from the bank in the creases and slacks. All fish came mid-late afternoon (4.08 chub and two small barbel in the 5-6lb bracket). All fish taken on pellet with a groundbait feeder. Really nice looking beat. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

2 Barbel, 1 Chub

Really nice day on one of the best beats on the permit. Fishing conditions were almost perfect with a dropping river and overcast clouds. Fish were hard to come by until late afternoon when they seemed to switch on. Best barbel, 7.5lb and the best chub, 5lb.
Will be booking again for next year for sure.

All fish caught on a team of 3 wet flies, most fish caught on a red tag fly. Most Grayling were around 10 inches but I did catch one 17" Grayling. The by-catch out of season trout were all around 10" long. The conditions were a bit tricky with quite fast water and lots of leaves on the water, meaning that I had to remove leaves from at least one fly every few casts. I stayed in the Seven Stars Inn in Aberedw which I cannot recommend, although the staff were friendly and the rooms clean and comfortable they are directly above the main bar so are incredibly noisy. In my case there was a 21st birthday party on the first night of my stay which lasted until 1 in the morning and the second night had a live band which may as well have been in my room and continued until after 01:30. Not great when you want an early start.
