As you know we are at the mercy of the weather in September - feast or famine! Turned up to fish Abernant for a long awaited end of season trip only to find the Wye roaring through the valley like chocolate soup from heavy overnight rain.

Made my way about half a mile up the road to fish one of my favourite streams, the Edw. Whilst this was also pretty high and coloured I decided to give it a go.

Managed to winkle out 6wbt, 5" to 7" and best about 9",all fell to spiders (usual suspects). Then the heavens opened mid afternoon so retreated to my B&B, a warm shower, a couple of pints with dinner and a prayer for clearer overnight skies (had booked Abernant again the next day).

Had 6 grayling (biggest about 12 oz) plus about 5 salmon parr. All fish off the top on a grey bodied klinkhammer. Lovely looking stretch of water in peaceful surroundings.
Very safe parking next to Llanfechan house. Will be back.

A difficult day; 12lb pike first cast which attacked my feeder in Boys Rocks, half hour later a 6-7lb barbel then nothing else from that peg. Be aware this is a difficult, tight peg, very steep and slippery 'path' too. Moved down the woods and found a nice but awkward swim (due to overhead trees) and had a barbel just under 9lb from close in. Both barbel on pellets.

I saw an otter working the middle river/far bank and after that I could not get another bite for the rest of the day! I moved around the few swims on the stretch but could not buy a bite.

A nice day out though, thanks.

2 grayling ½lb and ¾lb both on leaded shrimp. 1 brown trout ½lb on dry cdc. Others risen and lost. Plenty of fish rising during miiddle of day and early afternoon. A lovely days fishing.

Tiny hatch clear water no fish caught but very enjoyable day. Useful to have such a good pub close by.

Excellent days fishing. c.40 grayling (to 1.5lb) and 10 trout (to 1lb4oz) between two rods. Mostly taken on size 16 grey klink and size 18 tungsten skinny nymph. 7X and long leader the key. Lovely day - saw kingfishers, nut hatches and a host of other wildlife. Thanks WUF!
