Feedback & Reports

One rod 4 WBT to threequarter pound. Second rod blank. All fish returned.

Casting difficult along much of the beat and water too high to wade aceross to try from opposite bank. some clearance would enhance the experience on what is a very attractive venue.

Weather was, I think, a bit too cold for much action.

After 40 + plus years a welcome return to the Usk

15 good trout between 2 rods, most around 12 inches with a couple a bit bigger. River was just about wadeable in the glides following very wet weather, but the water had cleared well so fishing was possible but not easy. It helped being left handed ! good sporadic hatches of LDOs beween 11 am and 4pm which meant a good number were caught on the dry. Many thanks to Alison in the booking office for being so helpful. We though the river was borderline fishable but ended up having a great day on a lovely beat.

The river was in fine fettle even if the weather was a bit wet and blustery. Between Bob and Naithan they managed 9 fish mostly around the 1/2 pound mark. A patch hatch or olives during the afternoon brought up a few fish in dries.

We fished from 2.00pm to 8.00 pm. No fish caught. Saw very few fish rise. Couldn't take advantage, fished the duo, got a lot to learn, I will get it right and I will be back. Loved it thank you.

Four season in one day and due to the over night rain I had to contend with four rivers in one day! Fished? 11.00 'till 19.00, by then the river had settled but I was broken! Nothing for my efforts apart from a 2lb WBT slipping the hook with a delightful triple-salchow at the end of the first glide. I'll be back though won't I?!

Nil caught, low water condition, no hatch, couple of fish seen.

3 rods caught 31 trout in the 8-10 oz range with a couple over a pound. Most fish taken on tungsten nymphs with quite a few caught on dry olives. Weather was wet in morning but cloudy and showers in afternoon. Rock and roll baby!

Had a great day.We had 32 fish between us with the biggest being 1lb 4oz. All fish returned. Fish taken on a mixture of nymphs (PTN) and dries (olive emerger and paradun).

J L: 5 trout to 14" all returned, all on dries.
T D: 4 trout to 16" all returned, TNT nymph and emergers. Lovely spring day, with sun and the odd shower interspersed with LDO hatches.

River several inches up and coloured after rain the day and night before; wading therefore not easy/impossible in places (for me, at least). Sun and heavy rain showers, fished 10-2. Hatches of olives 12-1. Caught and returned 3 brown trout rising to olives, best a pound or so, all on various olive dries. Hook pulled out of/didn't hook properly(!) a much better fish, inevitably. All action 12-1.
