Started at the bottom of the beat about mid morning with plenty of flies and fish rising. Between the old man and me we managed one 12” trout and missed or lost another 5 or 6. The fly life lasted well into the afternoon though by the time we sat down for lunch the fish had gone quiet.

Headed up into the woods and there were a few more fish rising again but mostly smaller ones. Managed to land one in the faster water at the top of one of the pools. Made our way back to the lower part of the beat early evening and though the heavy showers promised by the weather forecast didn’t show up there was some light drizzle about. Managed to land two more before the temperature started to fall and it was time to trudge back up the hill to the car.

Really nice beat, thank you very much.

Nice brown trout about 10-12 inch. Caddis nymph fished euro style. Lost another and missed a few. Lovely sunny day but no fish rising.

Couple of hours spent in the afternoon. No fish rising. Lost one on a PTN. Amazing part of the Usk! Will go again with more time to explore!

Water levels were 0.584 and conditions quite good. The brown trout caught were measured from 25 cm - 40 cm (10 - 16"). All of them were caught on nymphs upstream; Duracell's, Croston's, Rozas and PT size 14 - 16.

2 very small trout caught and returned. Using PTN. Nice place to fish, parked at spot 2, just fished the south bank, no way to cross over as the river a had very strong flow.
