An excellent stretch of wonderful river. Would really
want to fish it again.

This is a lovely beat with a new challenge around each corner. The water was a little coloured and although there was plenty of fly life on the water, few Mayfly were rising and even fewer trout. A small black nymph (size 20) worked early on then caught a couple on Mayfly patterns.

Another excellent beat with a great pool at the lower end and two massive deep pots towards the top. In the field with the footbridge there is now a campsite so dogs, kids, plastic rafts and caches of cooling beer were the main things in the river around there. Didn't spoil the fishing. Water was slightly coloured and there were only a few Mayfly coming off. Did well with a cdc emerger at first and later took trout on mayfly patterns. Caught on very nice trout in the faster glide coming into the "red pool" towards the top of the beat.

Strted 8am. Lots of fly hatches, fished from lowest section up to Penpont House. Fish were scarce, not many seen. Tied nymph and dry. Had a 22.5cm trout at 4pm. Hard but pleasant day on the river.

Very bright and warm for most of the day. Some great fish(2lb+) spotted swimming between pools, but none could be tempted to show an interest. Definitely worth another visit soon.

River fallen to normal height but still running strongly. Trout from 4oz to a pound and a half - all lovely fish.Taken on dry fly. Hackled light brown or dun coloured flies , fished either purposefully to the odd rising fish or more often fished "blind" in riffles. Easily accessible bit of river just downstream of Talybont bridge but much of the stretch difficult to access from Ashford house side because of steep banks and overgrown willows and other trees. Nonetheless an excellent day trout fishing.
