10 x grayling 10-15 inches, Grayling Steel Blue plus one on a Pink Shrimp. Typical November afternoon, warm, dark, windy and rain on the way. Lots of wild-fowl flying fast overhead and the last of the leaves falling now.

All fish taken in faster water, using small weighted nymphs - all returned safely. We tried running heavier flies through the gutters along the lower half of the beat, - but couldn't tempt anything.
First time for us on this beat, and we will be back.

Very low water through the whole beat. Managed two small grayling between us. One on a green gold head and the other off the top on an Adams. Beautiful day in a beautiful spot - thank you WUF

Not many moving today

Hard going, very low and cold, not fly active as such and found it difficult to locate any fish at all at first, but as the temperature rose managed 2 Grayling and 2 trout from the top section of the beat. Nothing bigger than half a pound

Didn’t arrive till 11 due to road closures. Was at this beat last week but had to leave early due to leaky waders so I needed to come back to make amends. Water very clear back down to somewhere near summer levels.

Caught fish steadily all day all along the beat. 15 Grayling up to 19 inches with 3 or 4 around that size. All solid fish and tough fight in the faster water! Three out of season brown trout also caught in very odd non trout-y places. One a nice 18”. All fish caught on a selection of different dry flies and all released safely. And no water in waders when finished...

Thanks.

Most of the fish were taken on dries kinks and cdc shuttle cocks. Fish were not as good an average size as other years still a lovely beat though.

First time on the Doldolwd beat, some lovely Grayling water with a decent gravel bottom between the bedrock.
Lots of grayling ranging from half a pound up to over 2lb, and some decent out of season brown trout.
There was a large hatch of olives between 1-2 oClock, dries took a fair few fish in the slower water whilst long line nymphing other parts of the day. Looking forward to booking again!

decided to try the top beat today(down from the bridge) first time i`ve fished this, very nice, mostly pocket water but not too fast and plenty of spots to run nymphs through. it looked a bit trouty and so it proved because the only grayling i managed to tempt were near the bridge in the deeper slower run. grayling to 14" and trout to 12".
many thanks to the WUF for a lovely 5 days on their waters over here in wales, even the weather was good,no rain, thats a first!
