Feedback & Reports

2 trout and missed another 4. All on the dry in the last hour or so. Large fish boiled at the fly but no connection unfortunatley! You can clearly see the effects of phosphate pollution on this river which is a worry. No weed in the beat and a tree full of cormorants do not bode well....

Had a great day on the River Lugg at Lyepole. Access was not easy but once on the river searched out areas of faster water. The gloomy morning turned into a sunny afternoon. Fished from 11.30 to 16.00.
One trout was caught on a spider pattern . All other fish were caught on a single size 16 bead head nymph. Had five long distance releases. All the fish were in the 6 to 10 inch range. Had a lovely close encounter with a mink which walked around me as I struggled to get line though the hook eye. Really enjoyed the day.
Thanks to the foundation for great information and really easy booking, I hope to book further days in the future.

2 Trout, 3 Grayling

Weather cloudy with a westerly wind. Fished Rhosgoch for a couple of hours without success so moved down to Blaenmelindwr, which was sheltered from the wind and caught 2 brown trout that had been feeding on damsel flies.

Better conditions on the upper Wye as lower down the river was in flood. Couple of trout each on nymphs and spiders.

First time on Greenbank beat. Fascinating, and very different from further upstream. Not easy to find the fish - assuming they were feeding at all. Very few rises except for about 15 minutes about 8pm. But the one I did catch was a nice one of about 1¼lbs, on a nymph.

Water level low as per day before but rose about 2 inches during the day which helped to improve flow conditions. Same method 2 oz feeder 2 off 8mm krill dumbells haired on size 10 hook. 1 Barbel then lost 2 in succession and had 2 Chub.
