The river was well up & coloured, however my fishing partner Trevor Johnson saw a fish move about 3 foot from the near bank on the lower part of the beat, covered it with a flying C, and was rewarded with a lovely 4lb bar of silver grilse. It must have come up right past the Ryder Cup! This was his first ever fish.

THE VENUE;
I initially fished the upper area of this beat; as per many of the other comments I would suggest that this area is avoided. I struggled to find a suitable area to fish, even when I finally found a small flat area the drop to the water was still around 3 feet and the over-hanging trees made it very difficult to cast. However, I have noted that work is planned by the foundation so I will be interested to see what the fishing is like once the improvements have been made. There are no apparent signs that indicate the start and end of the foundation's fishing area (hopefully this will be part of the improvements).
TACKLE;
I would suggest that you keep the tackle to the minimum; wherever you park you will have to walk across fields or on tracks. Take boots with grip as the banks are steep, muddy and slippery.
COST;
I was also approached by an angler from the Monmouthshire club who fish the same stretch of water on the opposite side. It was interesting to hear that for £35 I could have become a member of the club and fished as many times as I wanted over the year. Hopefully the cost of day tickets soon reflects this price as I will struggle to afford the £16 every week-for the time being I don't mind paying if it eventually helps to improve the fishing venue and experience etc!
CATCH;
I initially fished the feeder method and did not have a single bite (this was in the upper stretch). When I moved to the lower part I witched to float and caught around ten small Silvers.
