Arrived about 12.30 in bright sunshine. Ate a sandwich and applied sunscreen. In less than an hour I was back in the car sheltering from a very heavy shower. The thunder made me nervous, isn't my rod a six foot lightning conductor?
Managed a couple of hours in all. No activity on the surface but plenty of insect life. Two trout 7 and 10 inches. Both came to a weighted PTN. Missed several others, so it was an enjoyable afternoon in the end.

There is not enough information given to get the best out of this stretch of water. We fished the Merthyr stretch first which is littered with rubbish and caught two small wbt. This is not the usual pristine river you would associate with the Wye and Usk Foundation. Then we tried to find access roads to the rural beats without success. Overall this was a disappointing day.
I would urge anyone thinking about fishing this water to wait until there is more detailed information available regarding access to the upper beats.
