Feedback & Reports

I caught no trout today and only saw a couple of rises in the 4 hours I was there. Very difficult day.

Fished 4 hours on a warm bright day. Saw many juvenile trout but nothing above 5". Saw no fish rising and nothing appeared to be hatching. I am a complete novice with fly techniques which may explain my failure to catch. Tried various dry patterns and also a wet but no interest. Beautiful location. Access is hard. No phone signal.

Rained off but the beat looked promising. Huge thank you to the farmer who helped me get my car out after I, er, accidentally drove into a diditch. What a top man he was!

Very difficult to access this beat (fences, low-hanging branches etc) not least because the water was high after recent rain. Gave in after two hours and left it for hardier anglers than myself!

Three small fish taken on different flies during evening session, first field above bridge - bibio, blue partridge and black gnat. Best fish just over 6 inches. 7ft wt3 rod and line, 6ft leader with 3lb tippet. No droppers.
Water very low and clear. Access to bank above bridge difficult due to barbed wire fence but beautiful spot, well worth the effort and day ticket price. Parking not ideal but road not exactly busy.
Online booking worked really well for my circumstances, short business trip. First time fished in Wales, hopefully not the last. Many thanks.

Only fished for an hour. Wasnt happy with my car parked on the road.

Only rose one fish all evening, and missed it. Lovely stretch of water.
