1 x brown trout 12'', taken on a grey Parachute Adams. Nice dry fly water above the bridge. Sporadic rises of yellow mayfly and brown duns throughout the day. Good beat.

My first time on this interesting, varied beat . Some fly life including the odd Mayfly and the usual "one rise every 10 minutes" as fish randomly cruised in the flats under the road bridge.
Two fish on nymph and one lost as it tried the unusual tactic of charging towards me and trying to jump in my waders !
Water quality wasn't as I expected as it was very slightly turbid and with plenty of brown algae drifting down - the trout didn't mind.
Annoyingly I lost my perspex box of dry flies early on so didn't wait for the evening rise. If anyone finds it you can easily identify it as it contains mostly Klinks and will have a group of trout nearby shaking their sides with mirth !

Cloudy, windy and cold but a late hatch in the evening

3 above the bridge for J.D. and 1 below for me. Rain showers but warm. Not many bugs about. Fish rises were intermittent.
Fished from 2 pm to 6pm, hoping for an evening rise.

Weather very changeable, river had a bit of colour later in the day.

Most fish taken on nymph, very few fish rising.

Had 1 trout on double nymph rig. What a fish. Well worth the hard work.

Parachute Adams dry fly. Trout holding in deep pools and rising mostly in the afternoon. Some trout were in 12 to 18 inch deep riffles. My guide was Oliver Burch. Great guide and teacher! Wonderful day on the Usk!!!
