23 x grayling 8-16 inches, 14 x out of season trout 6-14 inches, trotting. A very cold day with the river really high, 2 foot 9 inches on Llanstephan gauge, but running clear. It was a matter of finding a quiet run which could be fished near the bank without drowning self in the process. Grayling were on the feed, but also greedy post-spawning trout were pushing in where they were not wanted. Late afternoon came one of the most prolific large dark olive hatches I can remember seeing, although temperature only just above freezing.

Nice beat lots of nice swims no grayling but three little trout. Will try again, many thanks.

No fish, one bite that came off.

Good directions, nice beat very windy day which made it hard going trotting. Only a small trout towards the end of the day. Thanks.

Super day on the River Wye, fished dawn till dusk for pike but had no runs. Will return hope to get a bend in the rod next time. Thanks Wuf.

No fish caught: very high water levels and dirty water. In any case a very good day spent in a fabulous landscape very different Italian one. See you next time!

Nice beat last mild day before turning cold. A mixed bag small trout, grayling, dace and chub trotting with maggots and bread.

5 Chub on bread and cheese paste. River still holding a lot of colour and fish were hard to find. Fished almost every swim and caught from two.

Rather cold today as I arrived at the river about ten o clock. I was in pursuit of a few big chub that I have seen at Gromain on occasions but only managed a few grayling and three o.o.s. brownies who took a liking to sweet corn. Nice to be on the river once more after all this rain.

The lake was totally frozen over. Walked all the way round it and couldn't find a single unfrozen bit. Stayed for a few hrs but headed home when it became apparent it wasn't going to thaw.
