3 anglers fished, 1 barbel at 5lbs to corn, all chub to meat plus one 2lb eel to meat. Weather drizzly for best part of day, not much action. Because this stretch is not maintained / lack of available bank swims we were restricted to try different areas.

1 Barbel, 6 Chub, 1 Other

Nice day on the river. Water clarity increased over night. Trout caught on the nymph.

Decided on the lovely little Clywedog Brook again today.... 15 degrees when I parked up at half ten .... lots of sedge on the go and olives ... yeeeeeeeeeessssssssss !! Lol .....
Usual small streams outfit for here ....I think its surgically part of my hand now ..... ha ha ha !!
Anyway, great sport, lots of in and out here at the mo ......and fallen trees and debris....where I got a cast out, good Savage takes to my Para Grernwells , lovely job .... feisty hard as nails brownies ....love it !!! Eleven made it to the net, a few long range releases, as expected..... well, long range here is six yards or less !!!! Ha ha !!!
Kingfisher up abd down three times, just a joy to see ...fantastic.... think the otter had been active on the side of one of the pools , fresh pooh and lots of prints and water on pebbles ......
I got out at the Elan Valley pipes at just gone two .... a really pleasant few hours, after a day guiding on Claerwen Reservoir yesterday.... everything always seems closed in and Lilliputian, after the massive nature of the Elenydd ......
A fun few hours dry fly sport as always, in a blissfully quiet little valley, happy days.....

7 beautiful trout, one of which was a stunning 20", caught on barbless cdc dry flies. All released. I used an 8'6" 3wt rod, 12' tapered leader and a 3' tippet length (6x). The river had settled down after some recent rain but was showing a bit of colour, although it was a surprisingly chilly 12C when I started fishing at 10:00hrs.

Very quiet session in the morning, perhaps caused by the stained water after the recent rainfall. We did find a few trout and decent sized grayling in good numbers, in the afternoon. Mainly caught on peeping caddis and beaded nymph patterns.

Lovely bit of River ....blanked

Bright sun and coloured water. Slow start to the morning but picked up around midday. Plenty of grayling coming to beaded flies. Trout were small with one larger fish ~1 lb.
