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.

5:15 pm Llanstephan gauge 2'4" and 1'4" at Brecon. Parts of upper Wye and certain other beats above Hereford just fishable this pm. Quite a lot of the Usk should fish too BUT.....there's a bit of rain about hopefully not enough to change anything.
Thursday 21 March 2019
8:19 am Top of Llanstephan gauge now visible! relieved to find it s still there , although it has turned a bit anticlockwise. Forecast is for a drier warm spell . Parts of Usk probably fishable
Saturday 16 March 2019
8:27 am Its actually dropping now but yet more rain today will surely push it up again ...THEN we are in for a drier spell and perhaps later next week someone will get to wet a line
Friday 15 March 2019
7:23 am Even more rain today and tomorrow, rivers higher than ever, will take a while to subside when it stops.
