0 trout caught.

Lovely spot, cool day, water like gin, not one fish seen or caught, the water is obviously clean enough judging by dippers and the hatches etc, but lack of fish activity worrying.

Three small browns caught and released safely, each around 10". Two to an olive sedge and one to a PTN. All taken sub-surface in pools downstream of riffles. No rises seen. Exhausting beat - access remains very difficult with probably only a third of the one mile of river fishable. Best water is upstream of parking spot. I wouldn't fancy it when the brambles and undergrowth have taken hold later in the year.

4 wild browns - 3~7 inches
Lost 5 or 6 more in the 3hr session
Caught on Redneck PTN, fished klink n dink method.
Great little brook, but needs lots of work. Too many fallen trees and wood debris in places, not to mention the number of wooden pallets, car tyres and other litter in the stream.
Lots of small fish around which is promising for the future with some river/habitat management.

2 small Grayling 8 Trout to 1¼lbs.

A very hard day was had, I caught a trout in 1st half hour and my friend had 2 grayling. This was a very hard beat but weather was lovely so it wasnt all bad. Seen about three or four small fish top all day and 2 mink in the bottom wier! On the whole a nice beat but only really found half dozen decent swims in the conditions. Think will venture back to the Usk next time. Paul

Blank. This beat is often kind to me in the early season, but not this year. I never saw a fish.

No fly, no rise, no fish. Caught fine ladie's, seven speed bicycle in good condition.

4 trout caught - 8-10 inches.

First time on this beautiful beat, and I look forward to returning in May. An unseasonably warm and sunny day, and a decent hatch of LDO's and March Browns in the middle of the day, but sadly, I did not see a single fish rise all day, and after several changes from nymphs to dry to wet, there was not the remotest hint of a fish.
