Feedback & Reports

Both fish around 3lb mark caught on the plug, river in perfect condition, water very lightly coloured.

1 Chub, 1 Pike

I caught 6 on the fly, diawl Bach.

Nice fish some on dry a some on gold head, over all very enjoyable day good to see fish rising.

6 Trout, 7 Grayling

Sunny but cold with water temp about 8C. Nice little stretch of highland stream. Water level fairly low and crystal clear. LDO's coming off but no fish rising. Trout conspicuous by their abscence with a few pulls from the odd deep run/pool but none in the net. Caught a nice out of season Grayling of about 15 inches which took GRH fished deep in one of the pools. Difficult to fish beyond the footbridge two thirds of the way down the beat.

Although a very nice stretch of river with crystal clear waters, I didn't see a single fish along the whole length, I strongly believe there are very very few fish here.. O caught. O seen!

No fish caught. No bites at all.

Blank. Still pretty high water today, so rather reluctantly opted to spin. Nothing to report except for one very large pike which followed the spoon in to the bank on Corner Tree. It's very nice to see some maintenance done now, so that pools are properly accessible. By the way, there is currently a problem getting into the entrance of the beat. The road from Walford is blocked off, and if you follow the diversion all the way round the block to the Ross side, you come across workmen engaged in digging drainage trenches across the road there. Necessary to negotiate access with these guys or, after working hours, move their "closed" sign aside. This will all be completed in a few days apparently.

Great day, very bright with little cloud and water as clear as gin - I did not give myself much hope however the fishing was good with 5 WBT hooked and as many lost. Took first one on dry within minutes of first few casts, the remainder on nymphs fished on on long leader. Hatch around 1 pm fish rising frequently lasted about 40 mins then back to more tranquil times.

Lovely Spring day for first outing of 2015. Low water, bright conditions and picture perfect. Nothing much doing until brief and concentrated hatch of March Brown (?) brought up trout. Driver error and lost in the moment conspired to make a mess of it! 2 trout hooked, played and long-distance catch and release. All good, until demand of Six Nations took over.
Thank you to the kind Glanusk Estate Shepherd who recovered my phone later in the day!

A lovely day on the river. It felt like spring had arrived. Large hatches of what I think were March dun appeared late morning for a couple of hours but not a riser in sight. Water still very cold. All fish caught deep on gold head hares ear. Fish sizes were between 8-14 inches.
