KM concentrated on grayling and had two or three on nymph. SJ tried for salmon and had a 8lb hen from the Abercymryn Pool on a tube just as the river started rising. Before that, a few small grayling and oos trout on dry fly. By 3pm the morning's heavy rain had taken effect and the river was unfishable.
Thanks to Shaun the owner for the invite and for a great day on such a stunning beat.

1 Salmon, 4 Trout, 7 Grayling

We had a few fish on the french leader and the golden killer salmon fly, mostly on drys like little olives. A Davis caught his first grayling, which he caught on the dry, had two in total, well done buddy.

6 Trout, 14 Grayling

Raining when I arrived and started fishing at about 10am and still raining when I packed up at 4pm (relentless!). Despite this the river was fine and clear. Lots of fish rising that came to black gnats size 18 and micro caddis. I missed a fair few and had a better size grayling on a holy grail nymph. Typically the rain stopped as I drove away and as such I wished I had stayed on for the evening. However I was happy to have caught and just be out as the next day would had been a definite wash-off. Looking forward to returning.

1 Salmon, 2 Trout

River high though clear, making wading difficult in places. Saw only one fish rise. Caught one grayling, about 1lb and one trout, 6oz, on a tungsten nymph fishing New Zealand style. Not much reward for a lot of effort!

I fished the morning salmon fishing with no luck. Around 12 i fished the french leader only catching one trout and losing one, I went to the very bottom of the beat to find rising fish my first fish on the dry fly was a 21"/22" Brown followed by 4 grayling, i moved up to Harry's pocket to find a trout rising just off the bank a short flick in he came and nailed my f fly, I moved to the flats there was grayling rising a little way up i fished in one spot catching fish after fish on the dry fly 14 fish in total, I lost over 10 fish that I hooked and came off in seconds, the water was very cold

JH & AB fished the Craig Llyn beat for, maybe , some end of season brown trout, dry fly being the preferred choice, we were left wanting. A Grayling succumbed to what is regarded as a trout fly changed our pursuit of the spotty ones and seven ladies fell to the Grayling Steel Blue in the latter part of the afternoon. AB netted the pick of the bunch with a 19/20" fish. Hmmph !
