So takers.

Water 0.4m with slight colour. Fished for salmon as one of around 8lb showed several times below the rock at the Rockpool. Hooked a large salmon par on the Cascade, but only succeeded in driving the salmon back into the belly of the pool, where it showed itself once more. Fished for trout as several may duns and one or two mayfly on the water. Landed and returned four trout of around 12 oz on the dry 14 tups but driving wind and sharp drop in temperature curtailed the late evening rise which was disappointing.

Strong, cold wind with fish reluctant to rise. Nice w.b.t. taken from Salmon Pool, 14oz, on small grhe nugget, with copper coloured flanks. Four more small trout between us -5 fish for the day.

4 Brown Trout 2 x 4", 6" and 9". All returned. Caught on mayfly.

We both had 20+ fish each. All Trout ranging from 14oz to 1lb. DM also had 2 x OOS Grayling and Dace. DE had 1 x OOS Grayling, 1 x Dace and 1 x Shad. Two trout taken.

1 x 7lb salmon from the Tymawr Pool on a spinner.

Total haul of 20 brown trout caught on various mayfly patterns, from 20cm to 40cm.

A very difficult downstream wind blowing for most of the morning. Although a superb days fishing had. A slow start - but by 11.30am trout moving to some hatching Mayfly etc. One rod caught 32 Trout and out of season Grayling (nearly all trout maybe 7 Grayling) and the other had 8 Trout. Some good size trout caught up to 18".

Saw one very large Trout move agressively to take something in the margins under the trees, with a very impressive bow wave left. Also nearly trod on a very large Grayling on the gravel runs that moved away at a fair speed. Excellent day enjoyed even if a little windswept!

A lovely, wild stretch of river, although access/exit nearly impossible at times! 6 fish caught to about 8" but several more lost including one of about 10" on Klinkhammer and ptn. An enjoyable if tiring day.

River very low and silty. Needs a good flush through. First time on this river and it was lovely! The lower half of this beat flows over bedrock and in the low flows fish were very spooky with nothing hatching in the morning. Furher up it flows over gravel and it was easier to ambush fish. Midday saw the first of the mayflies and olive hatch which brought the fish up. Going back to the bedrock section and working back up brought a succession of fish to 11 inches. Upstream wind helped. Caught on olive paraduns and parachute adams. Ended up at 5pm with about 25 lovely fish. Rain please!
