Fished 11.0am until 7.00pm with 8” on the gauge. The grayling came with a rush early on, but only one or two were caught later. Nothing of any notable size. All of the catches were productive to some extent with the trout though. No specimens, but plenty of fish around 12”-14” which took a variety of flies . Nice to get a few on a single Grey Duster early afternoon, but soft hackle spider patterns were definitely the way to go to tempt the bigger fish in the conditions. At least another dozen or so didn’t come to hand.

On a more dispiriting note, I found two Mepps- like spinners on the riverbed today, the one pictured, in the middle of Dolmeudwy. Both were fitted with banned treble hooks.

Two on both lost, plenty of fly and fish activity. First time out, sure a better angler could have caught plenty

Got off to a good start with 3 Chub in the first hour biggest around 4lb lost a few more Chub not a sign of a Barbel all afternoon. Love this beat had some really good days here missing my old fishing companion Jopp a Belgian malinois every beg brings back great memories.

Huge fly hatch when we arrived on the water. We started off in Pylon for a couple of hours for 1 chub on the feeder. Started roving up stream where both caught chub on float and feeder.
The main action, including a lost Barbel that got me behind a boulder, came in the faster water.
Beautiful stretch of water, we will be back.

7 Chub

Fished for 3 hours one bite one chub.
On a beat that normally produces plenty of small barbel,and having not had a barbel in the previous two days,started to lose my mojo! Particularly when the two guys fishing on the end of the island, which is a very prolific swim, packed up having caught nothing
Flogging and dead horses came to mind.
Retired to Foy bridge to sink a couple of cold beers with my mate.
Next time?
