Two small WBT on nymphs

2 Trout

Fished the top end of Maes y beran from just below bridge at campsite to beat boundary, water was very low which is a worry for this time of year. A few brook duns coming off, but only the odd fish taking them. We caught good numbers of fish from 7 to 11 inches, most on nymphs fished 'duo' style in the deeper pools and runs.

After trying the Honddu a quick stop on the lower longtown. It was very slow and it soon became apparent somebody else must have fished the beat just before us judging from the freshly disturbed gravel and footprints. A couple landed, none big and a good size fish lost. A few risers were targeted with dries, but strangely ignored. The water level was very low, the bigger pools are now almost stagnant. We need rain.

No fish caught (I should probably have started this by stating this is my first time reservoir fishing & that my 9' 5wt rod is probably not ideal). Great location and great place to spend a few hours though. Fished both nymphs (weighted and unweighted) and dry but no action on dead calm water. Will be back at some point.
