River high and coloured so we’re not able to fish

River the colour of brown Windsor soup!

River rose over a foot in 6hrs, high, fast and very coloured, lots of sediment, and for my first time at Dina’s, made for very difficult wading as couldn’t see the bottem anywhere. Windy, multiple rain showers .Managed 3 on heavily weighted copper pheasant tail under an indicator

Two trout both to nymph. Nothing rising. A cold gusty westerly hindered fly life ... and casting.
As an FYI, access to the river below the road bridge is challenging after the strong winter flow has further eroded the right bank leaving a steep and fragile edge. Upstream the access is better but sadly the winter storms have not scoured away the organic matter that covers the river bed and floats around the edges.

Another difficult day on the Usk. Very few fish rising.

Fish in a fussy mood, but quite active at times. 3 smaller trout caught, several larger specimens lost.

Very hard day,probably the worst I’ve had on this beat,,,only 2 fish and about another 2lost.
Going down to a 18# ptn,with 2mm copper beads was the only thing they fancied.
I think the constant booking of this beat almost every day for the last fortnight is the reason it’s hard! We need rain also.
