Very windy day. Water low, cristal clear. Hardly any fish risen all day. Caught a tiny WBT on pheasant nymp and a better one lost. C&R. Spotted 2 massive trouts /3-4 lbs/ at the upper end of the beat in a deep pool. Booking easy, lady was very helpful on the phone.

The day started slowly, mainly due to the crystal clear water and bright sunshine. Fished for the 1st 2 hrs with very little success. Fish were easily spooked and difficult to get near.
Shortly after mid day the cloud cover increased and the fish started showing intrest in my copper head #16 bug, fished french nymph style on about 4ft of v fine tippet. The next hour produced 3 wbt, 2 x 1 1/4lb and a really plump 15" fish not far off 2lb (all fish returned safely). Left shortly after 2pm

Tough day in awful weather. Howling downstream wind and rain showers. Don't blame the fish for keeping their heads down. One tiddler and one of about a pound at 10pm was the only reward. Lovely beat though, will be back in nicer weather.

This is a lovely wild stretch. No fish seen at all but a great adventure!

Fished for the morning during the rain showers. 2 trout landed and 2 lost on small gold head. Nothing rising to dry fly. Nice and peacful.

Very few fish rising for most of the day and those that did seemed to be 'oncers'. Never seen the Usk before and this beat has superb variety and there's plenty of it. Spent a lot of time walking/slipping and looking. 5 fish on black bead hares ear and 1 on a dry olive at 9.00pm when a few were rising consistently. Biggest fish 15" another 14", others averaged about 8", all returned. About 16 degrees C, showers and overcast most of day. River looked up slightly up with a bit of colour.

Oh the joys of Fenni Fach, big trout and a free swim, well more of a sit down really! Was being oh so careful too. Great evening of sport with some lovely trout to the net.

Good to return to this beat, and the lower water made it possible to access stretches usually more difficult.
The day produced 7 wbt between us, and we stayed late anticipating an evening rise, but unfortunately it didn't come.
