Feedback & Reports

Nasty downstream wind precluded dry flies.; little hatching.
Lovely beat and nice to meet helpful keeper.
Will return

Very low and clear, cold downstream wind, sun. No hatches, saw no fish rise on beat.

There was the odd fish rising downstream but getting an exact location was cold standing waiting for the fish to show again. neither of us caught fish with a few half chances in the afternoon.

Rather like a summer's day - bright blue skies and no cloud. I was hoping for a good midday hatch but it did not materialise . No sign of rising fish. There was also a strongish downstream wind. Stuck to the top of the beat : two fish at 10" - one to the nymph and the other to a spider.

With continuing summer conditions, quick water produced 4 trout to 18 inches on heavy nymph. A late morning mixed hatch did not bring anything to the surface.

Sunny and warm on the Usk today. A few olives hatching at intervals from our start at noon until about 4 but not enough to bring fish to the surface in any number. Three trout to a beadhead hare's ear, two briefly hooked and lost and four or five plucks.

A lovely spring day for trouting, river dropping, sun and cloud, although very few rising fish. 10 WBT caught and returned best circa 1.5 lbs. Effective patterns included Spiders, Adams dry and PTN. Thanks to all at WUF .

There were trout rising to a little hatch of march browns, LDOs and the odd stonefly about 2/3pm.
Caught one on an adams (16") and another on a small PTN (11"). Found no other trout to be obliging or rising after the showers started.
