Feedback & Reports

River levels low, but found a few suitable pools to cast into. Can see why they recommend a 6ft rod! Caught 4 fish,ranging from 6 to 10 inches. All took a #16 elk hair caddis dry.
More fish around but spooked easily with the bright sunshine through the trees. Wet waded the whole beat but a tree or two made for some tricky wading!

A good day. River height was fine, running clear, but loads of debris. A tree is blocking the stream half way up.

2 nice brownies between 4-6 inches, missed quite a few takes as well. Used a pheasant tail nymph and a small broken daddy long legs. All returned to fight another day.

7 x trout 6-10 inches, Rusty Klinkhammer. A rainy morning and the water colouring up as I fished. Did the bottom half only.

5 x trout 6-10 inches, Black Klinkhammer. Very low river and hard going this morning. Only action seemed to be caused by little black sedges in one pool.

Spent a couple of hours midday. Rather sunny and water level low in places. No fish taken but saw a couple of small brown trout.

11 x trout 6-10 inches, Monnow Gosling. The mayfly is up, so big flies are in fashion again for a while. Some of the small fish have trouble grabbing onto a size 10, but they are certainly trying.

Few fish rising but no takes, lots of debris in the water and plenty to snag on. I tried a parachute for most of the beat then swapping to a killer bug, but no interest from the fish. Any fish that were there were easily spooked. Lovely stream to fish and I’ll be back another day just not my luck today.

Loads of fly activity, fish showing and a few takes, but no fish landed, water level considerably lower than a month ago, but loads of debris from the floods.

River low and clear. 2 brown trout returned, about 4oz and 8oz.
