Water VERY LOW. Slow moving fish if at all !! Small fry jumpi9ng No Catch no take fly or spin. great location should/could do better !! Too many visitors sight seeing !( Paddling up and down river bank !!!)

Very difficult conditions. Bright sunshine, no cloud cover and very low water made for a very difficult day.
Mayfly hatch was incredible at around 11.30 hrs but fish appeared uninterested. This beat needs water and I would return in the right conditions.

Very little evidence of fish rising but abundance of fly life. Excellent beat with varied pools and streams.Easily accessible and easy wading.Thank you to The WUF.
We will return.

A bit of a struggle given the low, clear water and few fish rising. However, we did manage some small fish on both dry flies and nymphs. At least the conditions meant my colleague was able to find his car keys, having unknowingly dropped them into the river - we'd spent an hour searching for them along the track and bank...
Stayed at the excellent Cammarch Hotel, Llangammarch Wells. Also gives you the opportunity for some pre-breakfast fishing on the River Irfon.

A day of two halves - cold, overcast and quite windy in the morning, clear blue skies and a baking sun in the afternoon. Fish don't like either really, very few showing, and those that did, were grayling. Combined with the low water level, it made for a hard day. Never mind, there's always tomorrow!

Fished with my good fiend M B, who is even less experienced than me at fly fishing
Arrived at around 8:30 the river very low, weather cloudy with a cold down stream wind.
I started at the very bottom of the beat and M a little further up.
For me it was very hard going with to start, the wind hampered my casting and any fish that did show I couldn't cover. Then around 10:30 the sun came out and stayed out, and with it an enormous hatch of gnats and a few small mayfly.
I fished the clink and dink but despite casting at every fish I saw only two went for the dry, one was missed and the other lost.
I caught 2 graying one about 10 inches the other 4, and two trout also 10 inches and 4.
All of my fish were take on a GRHE.
M had two very small trout on a dry, which he persevered with all day.
The most surprising thing was that despite the fly life there were only sporadic rises, and fish rarely rose in the same place twice.
I did see quite a few nice fish but they just seemed to be cruising all over the place rather than staying on station.
A lovely day on a beautiful beat, would love to fish this place when they're on the feed!

Found the beat hard work today, level low, lots of slime and algae and a wind that at times made casting nigh on impossible. Not a single rising fish. Three small trout to wet flies in the faster, oxygenated water. Rain required.
