Overcast dry day, some sun in the afternoon. Good fly catches but very few rises all day. Brown nymphs, trout 1x12oz, 4x4oz all returned, beautiful fish.

A fine day in waders!
First fish of the day went like train and measured 18". 5 fish on heavy beaded bugs to combat the extra clear water. Broken twice by very powerful takers. The evening saw a brief hatch of mayfly and 2 fish taken on dries.

Taken on Black and Brown Nymph. River was running fast but manageable. Stayed at The Manor in Crickhowell - very good value.

Tried wet flies and nymphs but don't think I had any takes. Saw one or two rises between 2pm and 6pm but didn't fish dry fly because so few rises. The other rod on the beat told me he'd caught fish the previous evening from about 7pm on dry fly but I left the river before then.
I hope to fish this marvelous beat again. The river here is very beautiful and the flow so varied and full.
Thank you for enabling me to fish in such glorious surroundings.

Beautiful conditions, unfortunately I only had until lunchtime. Loads of fly life coming off. No fish caught and only a few rising in the Bridge neck. I couldn't tempt them to take a fly. I was informed by another angler that early evening was the time to be there.

Very hot weekend with bright sunshine. Lovely stretch of river with good water levels and clear water. Fished with dries and nymphs to no avail. Few trout rising during the day.

Evening session, couldnt get any by the bridge, though lots of big rises. Got a few bites on the flats. Finally got one on GRHE, had a large beaded nymph below that to get the GRHE down to the bottom water very fast. Will try Czech nymphing next time. Lovely beat, great setting, I'll be back.

Two on the hook but not to net, both on dries, missed a couple more, wasn't to be my day. Few fish rising with sporadic hatches. Bright sunlight complemented stunning location but made fishing tough.
