Got very frustrated with this venue. Access up the river was extremely difficult, mainly because its fenced off both sides and when you do gain access to wade up stream you come across cattle gates across the water and fallen trees. No fish rising but plenty of Mayfly hatching. Stayed for 3 hours then gave up.

Well fished the WUF Pinsley beat and a private stretch between two and half four , and what a couple of hours of madness !!!!!
Weather was muggy overcast , and had been drizzling for a few hours in the morning , was then still and calm in the afternoon , perfect weather for Danica to be on the go . . . . . And when I bowled up it was a real festival to say the least .
Single large size ten mayfly , had a ball in the few sumptuous pools I managed to get too , the stretch on the private beat has some more approachable pools , but only just , it's still casting under the tree canopy job !!!!!
Takes were fast and aggressive by the excitable small trout , I missed many , and the average stamp was about five or six inches , but I did have two crackers , and for a small Brook , specimens and great fun on the two weight rod , must have been eleven inches , maybe a tad more . . . .
Had three brownies from the WUF stretch , and eight from the private stretch , Great fun after a hectic weeks work , few days off so shall head down there again in a day or two , weather permitting . . . . . . . . .
Two extremely fun hours , and eleven brownies caught and released , it's nice to see so much insect life in and around the little Brook . . . . . . . .
Back very soon , was planning on a trip up to the Claerwen Reservoir tomorrow , but may just change the plan , when sport is this good , and just fifteen minutes drive away it's a tricky choice ha ha ha !!!!!!!!

Very little activity despite some minor fly hatches. We had to leave at 1900 so may have missed a final show! Beautiful stretch of river.
