Great day today ,water had dropped from 0.112 on 13/9 /24 to 0.092 today 17/9/24 making the river a lot easier to get around. I still fell in twice!! i
Started at top of the beat very little rising so used spiders and nymph on the point .Two were caught on red spiders and rest on a heavy nymph in the tail end of ripples mainly in the deeper water all good fighting fish 12" plus apart from one 8" I intended to finish at the pool by the bridge as there were fishing rising in this pool when i came on 13th when i got there a father a two young lads were there swimming seemed to be having great fun . I'd had my fun for the day and was wet and cold so decided to make my way back to Malvern i finished around 4pm Another memorable day on the Usk. Thank you fishing passport

No fish caught but plagued with bites from crayfish using worm as bait. Gave up in the end. Bright conditions with blustery winds. Temperature around 19 degrees

Another session on a favourite, really fancied the Arrow, but had the update from Allyson , the NRW will review these closed rivers and the crayfish situation in a couple of weeks ...... conveniently coinciding with the close of trout Season.!!!
Anyway warm earlier today, only had a quick four hours, as bunny bashing on a local farm heading back to Leominster later on .....freezers getting low on venison, rabbit and pigeon, so a top up is needed !!!!! Lol .....
Great dry fly sport, again!! Saw those two chappies had a good day here on Sunday.... probably duo tactics I should imagine .... Their report was somewhat brief !!! And a two pounder .... good fish for there !!! I still love the finesse of my single dry fly ...The accuracy and precision of it .... Fourteen made it to my net, usual stamp for here, Savage lovely takes, only four to risers, .... various tiny size twenty f flies, also initially emergers, then Para dries after one o clock .... A couple of better fish on and off during my session too!!! Doooooooooh .....
As I said quite a bit warmer earlier today.... lots of olives on the go from half eleven .... lovely stuff ... River at 0.104m on the gauge, perfect dry fly height !!
Right, that's me, time to get the .22 Anshcutz ready for laters, bunny bagging exercise !!! Cold drink time my thinks !! Maybe the Duhonw later in the week .... is anyone else going to be adventurous and fish Pontithel ....come on guys !!!! Lol ......
