Feedback & Reports

Arrived just before lunch. Surprised to see that the river had not been affected by recent rain - low levels and gin clear. A warmish sun meant pleasant fishing conditions - but with the water conditions we knew it was going to be about speculative casting to likely spots.
Tried a variety of methods, upstream nymph, klink and dink, upstream dry, euro nymph. I managed to tempt a 3/4lb wbt with a single small brown klink and bring it to the net. Lovely surface take. Nice strong fish. Fishing partner managed two wbt to the net - both also on dry flies.
We both missed a couple of other fish.
Nice day. Varied water Finished the day with a kebab in Builth Wells prior to heading home. Tidy.

Water temp still on the cold side, preventing any kind of insect life from making a move.
No fish seen moving, managed to catch one small brown each more by luck than judgment.
Size 14 gold head ptn on the point.

I caught eight grayling between one and two pounds in weight. Method used was long trotting with maggot. Although I tried many pools all the fish were caught in one spot.

Last trip for the winter, managed 3 trips..November, December and today. Quiet day, managed 8 including an old friend...remarkably caught the same big grayling for the 3rd time! Left gill plate very recognisable..same pool.

The river was high and coloured but began to drop as the day went on. Two of us fished and had a few trout and grayling from the lower end of the fishery. Persistent loosefeeding eventually got a few fish going.
