Three descent browns on dry flies all taken in the morning, the sun came out at lunchtime so things slowed up a great deal from then on ..

Had a great day, conditions where good in the morning and overcast with a nice wind coming up the lake and not to bright. Fish responded on dries for a short time before sunshine Ruined it. Us anglers are never happy. Love the place :)

Bright conditions make the fishing challenging at times but we still managed around 10 lovely wild brown trout between us

Fished Talybont reservoir 10.00am to 1.30pm with LT. Buzzers hatching but very little fish activity. Way too calm and bright! Managed 3 each; nothing huge but typical healthy Talybont fish. Lost one on a long range release that looked a better fish.

My friend and I fished Talybont for the third time in 2 years and always enjoy its beauty and chance to catch brown trout. It was a wet and windy day so fishing was tough. I caught 2 nice trout and had 3 or 4 takes on a pheasant tail nymph with a hares ear thorax and a dawl back. I started on wet flies but no luck. There was a hatch of olives but little to nothing rising thus the change to the nymphs. My friend caught one small trout on a hopper. Lovely place to fish and will be back hopefully in nicer weather conditions.

Warm, SW wind though too much sun. Plenty of interest in a range of techniques. Eleven trout landed to 35 cm though one that fell off after the first run felt bigger. Some trout still carrying Argulus. Lovely afternoon's fishing for October.

First time fly fishing on a reservoir. Didn’t catch but learnt a lot.

Reservoir flooded and murky red brown. Found some clear water at a stream inlet and caught some good sized fish on variety of dark flies. Also had some success stripping back very bright lures quickly through murk.
