9th Nov 25 - Wye FPP Doldowlod - 0.732 and just starting to rise. Water clear at start but coloured a little as day went on. Felt quite hard going, all fish on euro nymph. Super tricky wading, staff an absolute must. Lovely water, will be nice to see in the summer.

2 Trout, 3 Grayling

Quite tough wading with the river at 0.78 on the Ddol Farm gauge. Challenging fishing and no fish caught.

The path marked on the beat map to get from the top parking back down is practically unusable, especially in waders + with a rod. I would advise heading down the road where there is a wide mown verge + the WUF should have a look or maybe change the advice on the map

Hard going and a beat that most definetly requires studded soles (which I didn’t have) managed 2 Grayling, one small and one of around 12-13 inch, also an out of season trout which was released very quickly with almost no handling. All caught on a pink hothead nymph.

A few hours in the channels fishing nymphs. Nothing rising. Hard going

Three nice grayling all around 13”, and one brown trout.

Oh dear, that's not a good result for this beat. conditions perfect weather perfect i know the beat well and have always caught plenty of grayling here, but not today !. Fished the bottom beat ( every inch of it ) 9 till 5 fished it well in my opinion but it seemed void of fish. Struggled at Buith yesterday as well but still managed half a dozen. I guess the river is just not on at the moment?

Lovely to spend time on this beat again as it has been a while. It was a lovely day for it, the river was looking perfect and the autumn colours were stunning. As usual, I spent the whole time working my way upstream through the bottom half of the beat. Nothing was rising so I fished nymphs. There were no signs of fish for the first three hours and then, just as I was starting to get a bit concerned about blanking, I managed to find some. All fish were about 14 inches and in perfect condition, falling for nymphs with a hint of pink in.

Next time I will try to explore the upper half of this beat.

Stunning conditions on the beat with the river in good flow and pushing a little bit of tint. Both relatively new anglers, the wading is certainly challenging in areas with deep holes and channels. 5 grayling to the net and a further 4 or 5 hits not converted. One small out of season trout. Best fish 16" and c1.5lb, two other great fish over a pound and two smaller 10-12".

A wonderful beat in full autumn splendour and one of our best days of the season.

Perfect conditions with sunshine, fish up to 14” on nymphs. Stone flies and olives hatching no risers though
