Feedback & Reports

All in all pretty cr*p again really, 8 hours fishing for the 2 of us, 1 bite and catch (1lb-ish rainbow) between the both of us all day. Using worm, trying both bubble and ledger, and using poly balls to float worms off the bottom, still nothing. Starting to become a waste of time and money fishing this place these days.

Sunny warm conditions but a bit breezy. Not much activity on the surface. Fished worm and spinner. Caught 1 trout using spinner.

Tough days fishing with bright and windy conditions. We fished from the lower limit and had a little walk about before we spotted a couple of fish rising. One fish of 10 inches was landed after a few different dry flies were put over him. The other fish rising were reluctant to come up to much of what we put over them. Later on a slightly bigger fish of 13 inches was caught on a tiny size 18 cdc. Plenty of fish missed and a very good fish lost in some fast water that also took a cdc. Lovely setting but maybe a good idea to fish during the week to avoid dog walkers and labs in the river!

A few fish jumping on Marle beds and the Point difficult to tempt. Has a large shad around 2.5 lb on flying C, lovely fish. I'll be back!

Most trout came to the nymph. Always enjoy fishing the Edw.

16+ trout to hand and 1 grayling all taken on nymphs in the fast water at heads of pools . There were a few rising fish but these all looked juvenile trout so carried on nymphing. This was the first time I fished this beat and I quite like it, the lower half had more pools holding some nice trout and the further up you go there is some good dry fly water. I did not make it anywhere near the end so the top third I cannot comment on but what was fished is nice water. Unlike the lower beat on the Llynfi Dulais, this one is much more open and was able to use my 7ft cane rod with no worries of it crashing into overhead branches.

16 Trout, 1 Grayling

I have many fond memories of this beat. sadly, the new fencing has changed everything. It looks pretty permanent, so I doubt that I will visit this lovely sketch of the river Lugg again.
