We cannot stress enough the importance of making quick and accurate returns of salmon catches, even if nothing has been caught. Recording catch data is one (perhaps the best, certainly the most cost effective) way of determining the success of our river restoration works. Although affected by short term variations in weather and water conditions, the longer term data set will build an accurate picture of our salmon runs. Catch returns can be made quickly via our online form for both Passport and non-Passport waters. Most of our reporting is from the Wye. Where a salmon has come from another river we will state accordingly.

Bigsweir: 80 so far this season. There has been no fishing in August due to the low flows and high water temperatures

1:14 pm

Heavy showers and storms over the last few days have dropped 25-70mm of rain across both catchments and the rivers are now responding. There is some welcome extra water pushing through the pools. There is a further 20-30mm of rain today and we might actually see a meaningful rise.

20-30mm of rain across the headwaters of both rivers has caused the Upper Wye, Irfon, Ithon and Upper Usk to rise into a small, but very welcome, spate. It is unlikely to move fish, but it is what both rivers need and will drop water temps right back which with the extra water, will improve prospects in the lower beats of boith rivers.
