Nice beat. Some activity: one strike but no catches.
The metal walkway alongside Wall Pool is passable but getting overgrown.

It's not immediately apparent where to park by the Llanwrthwl bridge; we left the car on the slope down to the meadow, between the two gates. We had a little difficulty; if it was any wetter we might have got stuck.

Not clear how to access the right bank of the lower section unless wading.

Fishing Passport Note : Instructions for parking are included on the beat details... "park in front of the gate on the verge of the upstream side of the bridge, main road side".

Bright hot day, light breeze. Trout caught in fast riffles, or just under tree foliage close to bank (euro nymph PTN). 4 caught, lost 3. One lost on dry mayfly in evening but little in the way of a rise. Mixture of flies hatching but not in any great number in the pool I was fishing. River is very low and clear.

Excellent days fishing. Lots of action and finished with 8 trout on the bottom between two anglers. I think I pipped my dad 5 fish to 3 :)

Lots of anglers catching on both sides.

Water had come up a bit from last week which was a help. Within about 15 minutes of starting the old man had caught a shad on a submerged dry fly from below the bridge so we left that bit to avoid running into anymore.

Rear of the day was quiet with the odd fish coming from here and there, no real rises. Most of the fish came from the very top of the beat where fishing last week on the beat above we’d seen them rising but they were out of range.

Another good day, thanks very much.
