Lovely day plenty of fish showing

1 Trout

No fish

Fished for 3-4hrs in the morning only. Fished duo with a Klinkhamer on the dry above a number of different nymph patterns underneath. No bites and no fish caught.

There was some insect activity but no sign of any surface feeding. I did try an olive jingler towards the end but no joy.

Great beat. Only fished the upper part of the beat, water was gin clear and looking really good. Plenty of insect life but sadly nothing I tried took the trouts fancy. I did have a take on a Spring Olive nymph in the fast water just above the pumping station but he shook off pretty quickly.
Despite one of the previous anglers saying the access was tricky, I found it ok. The access is fine but caution is advised as some of the bank access can be a little steep but doable if done slowly. Wading I think is better than other beats I have fished on the Usk.
I will definitely return and can see this becoming a regular beat for me.
I managed to speak to a local angler who informed me that some of the deeper runs just below the bridge is certainly worth a cast or two

Low and clear. Occasional fish rising and one lost on a dry fly but tough going!
