2 browns about half pound both on olive dun. Excellent river conditions. Beautiful beat albeit tricky wading on upper pools compared to gravel of lower pools.

I fished Craig Llyn on Sunday as a guest of Shaun Watkins, on this beautiful stretch of the Wye. The river has an excellent head of grayling and trout. We fished klink and dink also with just a single tiny dry fly size 18 which caught a few fish. This beat has excellent wading, pocket water and great access from the bank. We were lucky enough to be invited by Richard Gipps to fish his amazing stretch of the Wye. The Dolgau beat of the river Wye, which is just above Craig Llyn, is also a beautiful stretch of river with some lovely grayling which we all hooked into. Both beats are well worth the money and you will not be disappointed. A useful tip - wade slowly, use natural looking bugs and very small dry flies or klinkhammers work well.

Most on dry fly despite cold, windy rainy conditions. I only fished for a few hours as I got there late. Lovely beat

First time for us on this beat. Good water & weather conditions combined to give excellent fishing. Fish taken on a mix of methods - dries / french leader & Klink n dink.
Met up with Shaun the owner, a keen angler himself, who gave us some great local knowledge, and was most helpful - Thanks Shaun. Grayling to approx 2.5lbs & Trout to over 2lbs. Fantastic fishery with good access, safe and secure parking - will def be back soon.

Fish taken on PTN. Also hooked a couple of grayling on a CDC olive but didn't get to net. The grayling were of good size, all fish returned safely.

After a rather cold start (we both had to get out of the river after an hour or so to warm up!)the day developed into a great fishing day. Despite the cold, 6 fish came to the net in the first hour from the 'flats' below the island. The others followed steadily throughout the day although disappointingly there was no rise to speak of as the light level fell. The majority were taken on nymphs under a Klink but a handful were taken on the dry, mainly casting to rising fish but the odd one on a speculative cast into likely looking spots

Ideal conditions, but fish cleverer than me. 1 x 12oz. trout on a GHHE nymph.
