Fished about 3 hours and landed 1 nice brown. Water was low and clear with a small hatch about 1:30 or so in the afternoon. Saw no fish rise though and took my fish on a goldhead PTN. Another delightful day on this stretch.

Apart from catching one small trout I didn't see another fish all day. A lovely varied beat well worth revisiting later in the year.

3 x Brown trout up to 12" - on PTN. No rising fish seen. Hooked and lost several more, including one good brown that dived into some tree roots as soon as hooked. Very nice beat, enjoyable to fish.

3 trout around 1.25 to 1.5 pounds all on a dry olive. Brief rise to large dark olives mid afternoon. A beautiful spring day.

Caught 6 Brown Trout up to about 11 inches, had a Rainbow Trout of around 14 inches try to eat one of the smaller Brown trout as I was bringing it in. Fascinating to watch.

Good hatch of Olives started around 1pm. A great beat in fantastic scenery.

Nil return. Cold, sunny, cold upstream wind.

One Trout one and half pounds on a gold headed pheasant tailed nymph.

No fish caught. A stunning location that more than made up for no catch.

6 x trout 14-15 inches, spiders. As with other middle Usk beats at the moment, it's mainly about that short window of opportunity in the afternoon when a few large dark olives hatch off, before the cold winds come back to shut it down again by about 4 o'clock.

No fish caught. An enjoyable afternoon. Fished Gwynne Fawr last year and found signage better that this beat.
