Water level is very low due to work being done on dam

Fly fishing, no bites,

2 decent brown trout 14”, just under 1lb each. Caught in the afternoon between showers on a bibio over flooded grass a metre off waters edge, at the far end furthest from dam. Water level very high and quite breezy.

Plenty of rises but no takes

Er cymryd amser i grwydro yr holl ffordd o amgylch y llyn tro ‘ma, a thaflu llinell nawr ac yn man, gydag amryw o blu gwahanol doedd dim bachiad o gwbl.

Ond, toc wedi 9:30yh, tawelodd yr awel, daeth llonyddwch gwell i ddwr y llyn, a dechreuodd y brithyll godi.

Daeth un i’r rhwyd, ar batrwm cartref o hopper bibio, cyn ei ryddhau yn ddiogel. Min nos hyfryd arall yng nghesail y mynyddoedd.

Despite wandering the whole perimeter of the lake this time, and throwing a line in different areas, with a variety of flies, nothing seemed to be right.

However, just after 9:30pm, the breeze dropped, the lake stilled just enough, and the trout started rising.
One came to the net, on a homemade bibio hopper pattern, before being released safely. Another night of calm in the mountains.

Tro cynta' ar y llyn yma - lleoliad gogoneddus, a llonyddwch perffaith.

Chwipio plu ar sesiwn min nos, heulog braf, gydag awel yn chwythu dros y llyn. Un brithyll hardd i'r rhwyd, ar bluen 'buzzer' bach tywyll â phen oren - wedi'i ddychwelyd yn ddiogel.

My first visit to this llyn - a beautiful location, with stunning tranquility.

An evening session on the fly - fine weather, with a breeze over the water. One pretty brown trout to the net, on a small dark, orange-head buzzer - returned safely.

Water still very high in the reservoir restricting access to only a couple of places (wall of the dam and 5 minutes walk along the path. Very few fish rising at the start of day (5:30) but mid morning were showing near the dam..too far out for me to reach. As always, lovely and quiet and I managed to film a badger come out of the grass, come over to my waders before sniffing me and realising I wasn't a frog, and scampering off...quite a treat and made up for not catching any fish.
