Still no fishing due to flooding.

First visit, and although no Salmon caught or seen there was no disappointment. A really picturesque stretch of water with lots of variety, particularly for the trout fisher. I was focused purely on Salmon today, but based on the fine condition of the trout that kept taking my Ally's, I think next time I should bring two rods! The bottom section of the beat really took me by surprise with its breadth - what with the sloping pebble shores and flat land in surround it somehow reminded of parts of the Tay. Some of the nicest fly water I've fished on the Usk, but I would suspect the best chance of a Salmon here is in pretty high water. A great consideration when other Usk beats are too high to fish. I lost my sunglasses wading down in the morning, and miraculously found them on the river bed in the afternoon! Every cloud and all that.
