Strong flow with lots of debris racing past. 3 barbel around 6-7 lbs. All on meat. Lost a couple in the weed at margins. Great day!

Byton gauge 0.56, coloured water.

Bright and sunny day with a couple of very short-lived showers. River high & murky after recent, welcome rainfall. So there was no clarity and as this was my first visit to this beat, it restricted my movements as I don't know where crossing points are and so on. And it was deep and fast, so I didn't want to risk it! But it was spectacularly beautiful. I saw buzzards and a red kite directly overhead. And then a kingfisher zoomed up-river right past me - and back down again. Caught one OOS brown trout around 6oz on a pink shrimp. Not the grayling I was after, but a special fish nonetheless. Returned to the water very quickly and in perfect condition. I will definitely be back when the water has regained its clarity. Thanks WUF and landowner for enabling access to a magical stretch of the Ithon. Great parking directions as well, thank you.

River quite high and coloured. Fished for a couple of hours. No fish touched.
