Feedback & Reports

Started fishing at 6pm and packed up at 8.45pm.
10 trout to about 10" and around the same amount of missed takes.
Large hatch of Large Brook Duns with the odd Mayfly amongst them but the fish didn't seem interested in the hatch. Fished duo balloon caddis and bead head hares hear. Most fish to the hares ear.
Anglers beware, there is now a LARGE BULL in the field.

First visit to this lovely water and not disappointed. The river was fining down after the weekend's rain and the fish were obliging. 36 wbt were caught between 4 anglers mainly on beaded PTNs fished NZ style and some taken on Iron Blues and Yellow Mays. A beautiful beat with some lovely water, looking forward to the next visit. Thanks to all at WUF.

Fished all day yesterday from 6:30am with the water looking in prime conditions, slightly coloured with 1'5" on the gauge but to no avail again.
This year is certainly proving very tough catching the running fish just right. My 10th (200 mile round) trip to the Wye this season with only 1 fish to my name.
Notably my fellow angler hit a pod of Shad with umpteen takes and hook-ups in the Rock Pool tail out. If they're there, surely the Salmon are?!

Very windy, all fish between 6 and 14 ozs. Difficult day, small black flies again. Kept to area in front of boathouse. No way you could get a car along the track 4x4 essential and then still pretty rough. Wonderful scenery.

River high and very brown, lots of leaves. Not a sausage caught!

River nice and clear. 5 brown trout to dry fly only, not much hatching, fish a bit quiet. Fish size between tiny and 1/2 lb.

Not even a knock all day. 4 persons next to me packed up at 10am and went to the Usk reservoir.

Est 16-18lb relatively fresh Salmon taken on spinner (barbless Flying C) early Sunday morning. Still plenty of colour in water from previous days thunder storms.
