Beautiful and varied beat, and sufficiently far up the Usk system to run reasonably low and clear even when the river is a bit high on the Brecon gauge.
Walked all the way to the bottom of the beat and immediately caught two good trout on orange tag tungsten nymphs just upstream of the bridge, one just over 2lb, the other just under. Fighting very fit! Proceeded upstream from there, and sporadic hatches of March Browns appeared on the some of shallowish flats around 1300-1430, but did not see a single rise to them despite watching patiently and carefully. Carried on nymphing and caught a further 10 inch trout. Tried spiders right in front of Penpont House at the upper end of the beat and had a pluck but no fish.

Went for a window in the weather. Some bug life but didn't find a fish. Plenty of likely spots so will have another go.

River low - little fly life. Salmon jumped (or huge trout!). Lovely stretch river. Still had a great day, despite few fish.

What's the opposite of 'wash off'? a 'dry off'? The Usk is the lowest I've seen it. A good pair of wellies and you could walk across the river in places.
Saw one dead six-inch trout. With the hot conditions, we quickly decided it was best for the fishes' health not to bother them unduly.
