Long day, 5 small wbt betweeen us.

5 Trout

8 trout 7-10inches.
PTN, GRHE & Black Gnat
River low & clear
All returned

Bottom of beat,(near house),deep, not very accessable pools, you need to be able to cast better than me to fish here.
Half way along beat it opens out a bit to a succession of nice riffles & pools
Beware: 1st point of access here has a VERY LARGE WASPS NEST just where you want to put your foot to get out

In the evening had an otter porpoising across the pool down stream of the road brige at the top of the beat, 50M range & I know what a mink looks like in the water
A beatiful end to a day on the river

8 Trout

Little sign of fish with the river a little high. I tried nymph upstream and downstream and not a touch
Access to the middle half was a little difficult because of deep bracken with a couple of paths cut through it to steepish banks.

Fine day with a little wind. River didn't seem high, but wading was deep and access differcult in places. Evidently lots of good size trout present. Lost one sight cast on an emerger about 14:00. Nothing fishing down stream wet in ruffles. Took at 1lb fish about 20:00, when there was lots of surface activity at the downstream end of the beat. Sadly had to leave to drive back to London.

Wet fly - Pedrisen Lwyd and damsel nymph. Both returned, two others (approx. 1.5lb) hooked but lost.

I took my cousin on his first ever salmon fishing trip and he caught his first salmon, 8lb lightly coloured female fish which was returned on spinner.

1 Salmon, 10 Trout

Very pleasant day's fishing. Trout small - one about 12inch and two around 6inches, water clear.
Talybont Railway Station Inn, excellent for drink and snack lunch close to top of beat.
Access not easy for half beat.

It was a tough day's fishing but a great day. Access was very tricky as the bracken and Himalayan balsam has overwhelmed the banks. Earlier in the year, it's presence was barely noticeable. There were few rises throughout the day although there were trout clearly feeding by the wall at about 6pm. I only caught on nymphs as I couldn't match the hatch!

Nice river difficult fishing only managed to connect with one small brown about 9" to a bead head nymph fished duo.

Weather mixed (cloudy and sunny periods). Two missed fish Iron Blue dun. One fish lost - Grey Klinkhammer. Access difficult beyond second field but a lovey afternoon nonetheless.
