After all of the years I have been to Wales, this was the best day in terms of catching, 7 caught on a small gold head PTN suspended from a dry fly and the seemed to be getting bigger as the day went, finally saw a few rises around 4pm so switched to a size 16 baby sun fly and cast to the rise, and fortunately rewarded with my biggest wild brown trout ever, around 14”.

River very tricky to get into as very deep as you enter in most places; running quite fast , could not access a stretch by the stream but looked like a very fishy spot!! Showers of rain and very overcast with a splattering of sunshine

Freezing cold and foggy. Decided to head for the hills for some sunshine .

River at .71, too high and strong to wade to the best spots. A blank today despite trying all the options I could think of. Really good to see that Salmon have reached the usual pools again and to be able to watch them at relatively close range.

All were rising to dries around the middle of the day

No sign of fish and nymphs drew a blank. Grayling, 11 & 12”, Trout, 10 &11” all to #16 Para Adams
fished in the foam edges of the flow. Beautiful this time of year.

Water was very low, the fish was caught in the Mud Pool beat, I was using a red and green spider on the dropper size 14,on the point a goose bigot nymph green and brown size 14. No movement of fish seen at all.

My first time on this site, and it was very nice I will try again on a nice frosty morning.

The Irfon is beautiful at this time of year, very quiet with virtually no rising fish . Trout 12” caught at 9.30 on a #18 para Adams in the fast water then nothing until 2.30, Grayling 2x 12”..13”..14” again all to the same size para Adams mid stream in quieter flow.
