A sublime three hours !!!! Glad I went, with ominous downpours early on, and a bit of a miserable looking Sunday, or so just thought !!!! Skies kind of cleared and, i had a window of opportunity ...Local stream, @ Llanddewi....Happy days ......Boom !!!!
She was fun from the off, with olives, large brook duns and a smattering of mayflies on parade, when i first got down to the river at half eleven ....Superb dry fly sport...Aggressive, lively hits to my dry fly offerings...fabulous sport !!!! Nineteen, maybe a couple more, made it to my net ....
Fish ranging in size from seven to eleven inches . And, best of all, some serious professional rain dodging was done too ...Heavens opened as I was heading back along the A44 to Rhayader, now, thats good timing for you !!! Home, emails to clients im taking out next week, then a nice cold can of Inchs Cider ....Now, thats what I call a sunday, rounded off very well .....Cheers Folks !!!!

No sign of a salmon. Landed a good chubb and lost a Shad on rapala.

A steady trickle of pale olives came down all day and the fish were feeding well on them but I failed to raise one to my CDC Emerger (I had left all all my other dries at home). A change of tactics to a beaded nymph in a deep run brought me the fish of the day, a stunning fish of 18 inches. A lovely beat with plenty of fish but I wish I could have connected with those on the top!

No salmon seen. An enjoyable day none-the-less. at 0.23M on the Ross-on-Wye EA gauge, most of the beat can be fished with a fly if you wade out a little.

One trout caught on an Olive Emerger.

The river was clear and low. The weather was strange with everything. Only with a dry fly the fish was taken on on the opposite bank under the trees.

Cold & heavy showers. Reasonably good evening rise but didn’t have what they were after in my fly box !
