Nice day some rain ,wind cloudy,no fish plenty of rising but nothing on my fly rod
Tight lines .M.

Not impressed. This was booked due to the description being described as good for easy access !
I do wonder if the Wye and Usk staff have ever been there !!!
The access is down broken stone steps and mud , with a broken hand rail etc .
This takes you down to the area that is a small channel by the back of the island , then let’s talk about the wading to access any other part of the beat … one word …. Lethal
It is NOT gravel it is large boulders and deep MUD in the margins . I am a confident wader but gave up on the end.
What an absolute waste of £40 … never even set a rod up !

The fish were about 25 cm long the water was to high and it was impossible to wade in many places but the weatcher was nice and a beautiful section of the river i will definitely come back here

River about 18" higher than ideal, makes this beat impossible to cross given that it's double bank. Not one to fish until the levels have dropped for sure.

A more lively beat, even in this low water, than Greenbank yesterday. It’s been a few years since I was last here and I had forgotten a) how overgrown it is and b) how many dog walkers and stone throwers there are on the other bank. I mooched around with the trout rod and had a few takes to an olive emerger but nothing stuck. There was a good trout head and tailing towards the bottom of the (dangerously decrepit) walkway. But it ghosted away once I started casting to it. I’m not sure this beat is worth the money if I’m really honest.
