3 Sea Trout

Again, river running low. Some interesting stretches/pockets remained to fish. Long and lovely beat. Great variety to fish !

2 Trout, 2 Grayling

A short evening session produced 1 grayling and 1 small brown trout. Nothing sizeable. Lovely calm (no wind) evening.

But very, very hot this week (30 degrees) and bright sun, with the rivers running low, so generally not the best conditions.

My friend was fishing this beat alongside me - he caught a couple of small but beautiful wild brown trout. Evening session.

Well,what a weird start to my day , bowled up at the Duhonw at half nine ..... not a sniff of any trout activity for nearly two and half hours, nothing seen either .... how odd I thought !!@ Anyway when I returned to my truck had a chat with the chappy who lives close too the Bridge, and he reported a white grey substance to the very interested NRW, IN FACT SO INTERESTED, THEY BOWLED UO TWO DAYS LATER, commented that the water sample he took would be useless .... so there you go a totally professional response!!!! SO PROACTIVE HEY !!!!
Anyway , WUF this needs addressing as I didn't even raise a fish in quite a lengthy beat of river, none seen also .... I'm guessing pollution has done its worst !! I moved onwards to the lovely Cammarch .... and was relieved to get takes to my sparkle dun, and later on a tiny Para Adams ..... Great fun , a nice four hours, managed seven to the net, and a few that didnt male it, as always.... the fish go crazy here once hooked ..... Great fun though !!!
Made up for what I thought was a sad start to the day ..... the Duhonw used to be alive with little feisty brownies..... not any more !!! Unless an otters has stomped through the whole beat ...... mmmmm I wonder!!!! Lol !!!
Anyway .... some leg work done today , personally WUF , I'd put the Duhonw out of bounds till the grey white substances identified, that has been seen on more than one occasion so the chappy said , perhaps some investigations upstream of the Bridge parking on that beat ...
Right, time for a cold bottle of beer .... and my weeks wild stream extravaganza shall continue tommorrow, happy days ......

Blisteringly hot day with fairly strong wind veering between east and south. Mostly fished the top end where the streams come in. Eventually, netted two brown trout, one estimated at about 1.5 lbs and the other 0.66 lbs. Very satisfying given the conditions. Bibio variant (George Barron?) did the business. Access to top end - penultimate layby and walk down to water through the woods.
