Early start on Rectory this morning, only Shad to the fly . No silver customers showing anywhere along the beat . Water levels are dropping and in need of another rise . Nice day out though .

fished early in the morning nothing seen or touched

first cast at 5.10am up with the larks .It did not do any good though as yet another blank for me

Nothing today apart from Shad. They certainly seem to like a small red Francis. A bit disappointing really as with 1’7 on the gauge ,it was lovely fly water throughout along with a couple of salmon showing in The Run and the Rock Pool.

After an evening before with no luck on the same beat with the river perfect and a weather forecast of bright sunshine today, I got to the river at dawn hopefully to get a few hours in before the sun got too much.

Took a solid fresh run fish about 12lb in the bridge pool about 7am, on a Usk Grub tube

Nothing else seen apart a huge amount of Shad, especially in the Rock Pool. Had more than 15 from there in one run of the pool, a lot of stripping!

1 Salmon

Pleasant day out, nothing seen apart from 5 Shad caught.

Quite a strange day. 3 salmon lost between 08.30 and 10.30, 3 landed between 12.15 and 12.45. Schools of shad everywhere.
2 cock fish from Rock Pool at 10 and 13 caught by me. 15lb from Gravel catch to Grant Holmes.

The river just died in the afternoon, very little rising going on aside from a several shad in Recory Pot/The Run. Be back soon.

3 Salmon, 6 Trout, 15 Other
