Feedback & Reports

Low, clear water made conditions difficult although pocket water proved proved productive with many more fish missed. Group of goosanders spotted 50 yards downstream of the parking area on arrival.

Fished between 1400 & 1700 hours. Temp 22°, fairly heavy cloud, seemed promising, but failed to tempt a single fish, in fact only saw one small fish. But still a pleasant way to pass a few hours.

Reservoir very low, no fish caught.

I enjoyed this fishing because I concentrated on using a light rod and a spinner. Two rainbows in fine fettle and dropped a third. Also, tried worm under a float but no interest. I fished in the bay and from the concrete by the dam wall. Had another follow my spinner right to the waters edge. I noticed that quite a few people were "camping" both in motor homes and tents/bonfires - I didn't know this was permitted, but I guess if they behave appropriately and pay for a ticket to fish (if they fish) then this is no problem.

4 trout. Fished from 8.00 pm to 9.30pm. A quick move here from the Senni paid off. Flow very low, plenty of refusals and boils under dry adams in still pools. Best fish 14 inch rest 7 - 9 inch. Lots of tiny salmon parr about trying to drown the fly!

Went up for an evening fish, arrived 6.30 pm. Very cloudy & quite windy. Pools almost stagnant. Spooked a few fish but none seemed big. Salmon parr everywhere, pecking at dry flies. Landed just one 6 inch trout. Moved on to Crai after an hour, knowing there are more and bigger fish there.

The river was quite clear and fairly low, we fished under bushes in the eddies with a ground bait feeder and luncheon meat. We were told by everyone that we should go for long hook lengths as it was going to be tough going but had no luck so shortened eventually down to 1 foot and all fish fell to this rig. Fish sizes - barbel 5lb 9oz, 6lb and 10lb 3oz, Chub 3lb.

3 Barbel, 1 Chub

Missed 3 in the first 10 minutes then nothing. Still a fantastic day up at a stunning venue.

1st attempt of fishing with my 7 year old son. Unfortunately caught no fish, better luck next time. We enjoyed it though.
