Wow! what a beat. I personally only fished a short stretch of the water and as we were leaving on the long drive home, we only fished for a short while. I would return to explore this water any time - and will do so at the first opportunity. I lost one really good brownie and returned another decent trout of around a pound in weight to fight another day.

Very little sign of fly life when I started, so I put a PTN on the point and a GRHE on the dropper and started to work my way down from the bottom of the steps. Caught a very active fish of about 11" with my 5th cast. Connected with, but lost what felt like a very good fish further down and then changed to a dry sedge as a few fish began to rise. Action stopped mid afternoon and no further rises, so packed up at about 5.30 pm. I am sure there are good fish there, but this was not their day!

A great beat with some lovely runs and lies. Water was clear and fast and a great hatch of caddis occurred for most of the day. 2 x fish caught and returned. One on a dry caddish the other on a hares nymph. Too bright for the most part but a wonderful day.

Very cold by the Beacons this Sunday, both wind and water. Water level high and quite dark - clearly recent rains still having an impact. Good days fishing, but nothing caught...
Did see a small hatch around 2pm of dark olives, but no fish rose.

Short of time - only managed 3 hours due to work. Nothing much happening for 2 and half hours - then things started to pick up. Lost two nice fish in the last 20 minutes before I had to go! Such a shame to have to leave just as the fish came on.
I say I'd come back, and maybe I would but I think the price tag is quite hefty compared to others for the size of the beat. It's always nice to try new beats though.
