Feedback & Reports

Fish were caught with the worm, it was a good day. Weather was sunny and dry, other anglers were also catching fish. I came home a happy angler!

4 Trout

Fished all 12 pools of Rectory beat. One rod with fly ( cascades, willie Gunns, Black Wilkinson etc on floating line ) other rod span ( mepps and yellow belly). One salmon c. 12lbs seen cavorting in tail of rock pool . None taken or touched. Weather dry! and warm with a barometer bouncing up and down between 995 - 987.
River - Brown and high though falling. Wading possible throughout and with studded boots - ok.
Do not know which/where gage relevant to this beat is but am certain that with less water and more clarity the results are good.
Very pleasing and accessible water and notes and map clear. Thank you

Fished 4pm to 7pm in strong wind and rain. River colouring up and rising according to the sticks I put in the margins. Fished PTN but no takes, more to me feeling miserable and not trying to hard I think. Great to be out in such wonderful scenery.

Three days on the Edw, starting at Aberedw and working up all four beats to Hundred House. The rain put some colour in each morning and we managed only a few hours each afternoon as it fined down (before the next downpour). That said, it fished well to Klinks, Adams and Nymphs and we had 6 trout each day between us. All small wild brownies between 4-10 inches.

6 Trout

Nothing caught.

11 trout up to about 8 inches. There was lots of fly life and plenty of fishing showing.

11 Trout

All fish released from barbless hooks. Raining heavily on and off most of day but fish free rising to a steady stream of olives from late morning onwards. 3 fish on copper john nymph but remainder on dry fly. 3 best fish all about 2lb and only 2 were under 1/2 pound with the remaining 13 1-1.5lb. excellent sport. One fish of about a pound had healed gashes on both flanks from (I suspect) goosander or cormorant. Neither bird seen on this occasion though.
