Dropped in on this beat for a quick run through after fishing Lower Henllan further up. Some great fish caught, several exceeding 1lb.

Lovely morning's fishing on a beautiful river. 0.50m was showing on the gauge higher up the river, after fairly heavy rain, which made things challenging and I was happy to have gotten a take, sadly didn't land it. Using a 10ft rod made things interesting as well, but the length is actually quite useful. You can normally present a fly, you just have to think about how you're going to do it. There is a lot of tree cover, but I quite like that, really makes you feel like your hidden from the world.

No fishing, river in spate and “pea soup”

A few hours in the morning; good flow and a very quiet feel to this beat, always in a tunnel of trees. Some good fish too - of the eight that actually made it to hand, four were in the 12-14" bracket, best nudging 1lb. Lost at least the same number.

Our first visit to the Pandy beat of the Honduu. Although we are used to small river fishing, we found the beat 'challenging'! There was a good push of clear water coming down which made fishing difficult in the shallower runs. The few pools and deep runs did produce some takes but with only one fish netted it was a tough day. Appreciating that this beat is rarely fished, there are many overhanging trees which really do need a trim.

A trickle of Mayfly coming off. One fish C 1/2lb to a largish dry Grey Duster. Few fish movements seen.

Fished for a couple of hours on Thursday 10 . conditions were almost ideal water was clear and the weather has cooled from the highs of the Bank holiday. There was a lot of insect activity throughout the stretch I fished. The only thing missing was the fish. There was no sight or sound throughout the two hour fishing. I changed flies and methods but to no avail. Poor catches are part of angling but such lack of fish activity in these conditions was very disappointing.
