Washed off, river was high, fast, and brown unfortunately ????

An interesting stream where a lot of stealth required and some quite deep sections. Only fished the bottom 1/2 mile and took 3 x 8”in a tough, windy 3 hrs. PTN and olive Ffly

3 Trout

Only had about 3hrs so decided to fish the lower section above the 1st road bridge. Access was excellent, the club that runs this stretch need a mention as it was all rather easy. Nice path, steps to get down any steep sections and even the occasional bench to take the load off for a few minutes. Managed 1 tiny trout and 1 'good un' that gave me a right run around (was just under 40cm). Also had 2 peas in a pod Grayling about 25cm each. Didn't see a single rise so all the fish fell to the nymph either as a duo or full EN set up. Lovely stretch only wish I'd had a full day to explore further.

Lovely afternoon's fishing in late season. Stuck with the dry fly and lost a decent fish. Can't wait to visit again.

First time. River was too high but I have explored and will be back to try when river in summer mode.

Clear and sunny skies, good conditions on the river, several trout rising to hatches but seemed unwilling to take a dry fly, 1 trout caught on pheasant tail nymph

Should have nymphed from the start but I didnt have a French leader and I thought it could be too tight to fling a duo around.

I set out to catch on the dry and the first cast raised a splash so I thought it was locked in from there, but didn't get sniff on the dry after that.

Fished the section from Rossett to the sewage works missing out the railway bridge since someone else was there and corn field since I was running out of time. It was on a mid-september sunny/cloudy day after recent rainfall so perfect conditions. Lots of sippy rises but they weren't taking anything nd were spooked very quickly.

A lot of the paths through the vegetation drop in immediately into pools, something I should have clocked earlier to set up a duo/indicator.

All the fish came from the sewage works pool, almost every cast had an anticipation of at least a nibble with the duo rig with a 3-4ft dropper.

First time here and really liked it though we didn’t catch. The rivers were Low as we have had no rain. Tried wet and dry fly. Suited nymph really.
Stunning place, idyllic narrow river. Great parking very close to the different fishing areas. Will definitely return

A short morning session upstream of September Cottage with the river running fast and slightly cloudy, weather was overcast with outbreaks of rain. Saw no sign of fish rising so the dry fly rod was not used. Targeted the Brown Trout on a French Leader set up with a bead head olive nymph on the dropper and an off bead GRHE on the point. It was tough to pick out the Trout amongst the out of season Grayling which seemed to be present in every pool. A beautiful stretch of river which I hope to return to one day.
