Feedback & Reports

A superb day !!! Well four hours late afternoon, midday till fourish.... gets home, logged on to the fishing passport ... and even after all these years it baffles me, one report showing from friday and a couple from Sunday.... why aren't the rest shown ??? So we can see what's been fished and how its doing etc etc .... on various beats and the wild streams .... Anyway , not really a gripe more bemused to be honest, if three are displayed, may as well enter all submissions from Thursday onwards!!!!
Fishing was superb this afternoon, river like very weak tea, but the Edw fish still hammered a Para pheasant tail, and I did change to a cdc and elk, equally successful ... a good few on and off today, but twelve made it to the net ..... sizes from six to eleven inches or so !!! Lovely feisty fish and cracking splashy rises to the dry fly ..... just fabulous.... can't get enough of it !!!
Fished just shy of the farm.... just a nice slow session.... well, it had to be, wading was tricky as i couldn't see the river bed .... if you don't know this beat, don't go two days after rainfall .... its strewn with slippy bedrock .... fortunately I know where the worst areas are !!! ..... In two days time it'll be bang on, that said, its great to catch trout so close, as they can't see you .... a lovely session on one of my favourites, try another stream tommorrow, happy days .......

Good days fishing.

5 Barbel, 1 Chub

I caught 3 rainbow trout in total, all using worm on bottom

D.E from Mountain Ash also caught 2 rainbow trout using worm on bottom

5 Trout

Bit of a struggle really with just a couple of chub to show for my mornings efforts. I will be back tho as the stretch really does look very good for a few Barbel.

2 Chub

This report is for 2 anglers CT and AW

CT - 5 Barbel, and 10 Chub - the biggest Barbel was about the 4.5lbs mark, and the biggest Chub about 3.5lbs

AW - 1 Chub, and an Eel

5 Barbel, 11 Chub, 1 Other

Clothi & Crufbar -Ffroodvale and Gwargorof . The fields to right were full of cows, and a huge Bull was not happy with my presence, so access was restricted to a relatively short 300mtr stretch of left hand bank on the lower side. No success. Decided to move on hoping for

Mynachdu - again cows filled the field leading to the main fishing and after the earlier experience I decided to give it a miss. The riverbank closest to the parking is fenced and overgrown, as such fishing was inaccessible at this location.

Disappointing day as a result of restricted access, but enjoyed a couple of hours nevertheless.

15 Trout, 8 Grayling

Fish seemed to be mostly on the bottom rather than rising, but 5 decent grayling on dry/duo up to 14", and a good half-hour in the evening (after 8pm) with a CDC caddis. The French nymph-ers (not me) were doing rather well!
