A late start. Took 3 good graling fairly quickly - two of which were in the 16 inch class. One on a hairs ear and two on a black Dibbler. A large hatch of blue winged olives was interspersed with sedge hatches later on but no more fish caught. This is a superb and varied beat that is also very accessible. I will be back again soon.

Another hard day to tempt anything. There was just nothing rising. Tried everything but they just weren't interested. Still managed a couple though and on this beat and the upper wye in general it is just great to be there.

Very hot day and difficult to tempt much. A couple of grayling grabbed my sedges. River was quite low really which was just as well as I took a dunking. After drying out went back to meet the owner for the evenng rise but still struggled to get a take, even with a 12' leader ( although this may have been due to my casting ability). Many thanks Shaun. Decided to head off to the Elan tomorrow.

Mixed day but enjoyable as ever. Mid size grayling came to soft hackle dries and small sedge.

River carrying some colour & higher than ideal but I persisted during the day taking shelter under trees from the torrential showers & picked up a couple of trout & grayling on nymphs. The weather cleared early evening (as forecast) and I was rewarded with a hatch of BWO. Had most of the trout in the last hour on a BWO paradun.

Good day of fishing, clouds and sun breaks, high coloured water, 17C, bit windy time to time. Not much surface activity, all fish taken on wet fly and nymph, WBO imitation. No graylings this time. Trouts 10-15 inch, happy returned. 11 in total.
Thanks
