Rain, cold, and the river was rising slightly. 4 anglers managed 8 wbt (biggest 17 inchs) on wet, nymphs and two on dry.

A beautiful spot. We just fished the evening session from 5pm onwards. Hot weather, crystal clear water. Spotted a few big fish as we walked down to the lower section of the beat (and it is a big beat, including the main river and two wild streams), but couldn't entice either of them. My fishing partner did eventually catch a beautiful fish on a dry, jingler style fly, and a second smaller one on a streamer as the light faded. I managed two smaller fish on nymph above a Klinkhammer. Will definitely come back here again to fish the whole beat... onto Pantysgallog for day two...

river too high

A tough day - crystal clear water, and bright sunlight all day - but a terrific beat to fish. All attempts with nymphs and spiders produced only nips and tugs; the only fish caught were off the top to small olive emergers. Loads of fly-life, and numerous fish rising, but no luck connecting. We will try again !

Couple of small rises seen, but only in deep pools, otherwise a complete blank for both of us. Lovely part of the river though.

2 rods fishing as usual. There is plenty of fish holding water on this beat! The day started cold with showers but ended up as a lovely evening. A few brook duns, large olives and olive uprights were hatching sporadically and as usual for us with Usk fish they dont come to a dry unless they are actually taking the natural. So fishing was patchy and a case of keeping moving to find the hatch and rising fish. 6 hooked but only 3 brought to hand - 6 and 8 inches plus a 17 inch clonker! Two of the fish lost were at least that big.....

A super days fishing in lovely surroundings.

Low water and a cool downstream wind made for difficult fishing conditions. Long leader contact nymphing in the morning caught me five good fish 18”,17”, 15”, 2 x 14”on size 14 jig 3mm black tungsten bead March brown nymph and peeping caddis. The afternoon was spent stalking large trout taking Brook Dunn’s with only one positive take that I missed.
