Fished for 3 hours in the morning and caught two Grayling on the tail of the spout that runs into the Bathing Pool. I have found this section to be a good fish holding spot, especially when the water is low and the weather hot. Caught fish using a size 16 Sawyers Pheasant Tail nymph. The method employed was casting up into to the spout and allowing the nymph to return witht he current. Very busy fishing, but a good technique which works. Find that anything larger than a size 14 hook is not so good especially in clear water. This is a lovely beat and a delight to have time upon, recommended.

An excellent day on the Wye despite higher then would have liked water. Over a dozen trout caught on wet olive flies, most fish around 9" mark, two trout at 15". Plenty of missed takes. Very interesting day. Thank you.

When I arrived at 10.45 am the river was very muddy after the recent rain.
Started with a Dry Fly on the tip and Nymph on the dropper not a bite, after 2.00 pm changed to two brightly coloured Nymph's and had a 6 inch Brown, which was returned and that was the only bite all day.
There were no fish rising at all, the river is running quite fast, and is currently about 12-18 inched higher than it was in late May

A bit of a strange day weather wise - got colder as the day went on and there were squally showers. All of this unsettled the fish.

Have to wade carefully at the moment as have gammy leg so some areas out of limits. 10 wbt to 12" not our most impressive total and unfortunately neither of the newbies with us managed to break their duck. The action tailed off as the day went on and not a grayling to be seen. Who tipped them off it was the first day of the season I wonder?

But a lovely beat as always!

I caught four brown trout to 8 inches and two small salmon parr, all returned.
By 5pm the river had turned chocolate brown and I packed up. Interestingly the muddy water was all coming out of the Clettwr, the Wye above the confluence was clear.

Caught 2 brown trout, both released. Had a nice day. Thank you.

Three small WBT on Olive Nugget and sm. Adam's....beautiful beat. A lot of rises towards the evening. Thanks again WUF staff.

6 small browns caught on ghhe. 1 x 8oz brown on pheasant tail. River still quite low, hardly any fish rising.

We love Ty Newydd. An overcast day with occasional short showers. Colder than the last few days. 6 rods caught 20 trout to 1lb and 3 grayling to 1.5lb. Best flies were gold head ptn and czech nymph. No fish taken. Thanks for 2 days superb fishing.

Sorry for the delay in returning but due to a week away on holiday PC time has been limited.
A tough day that from memory was very very windy. Only saw a handful of rises all day so fished nymphs nearly all day with the odd change to klink and dink.
Caught 2 x Dace (I believe) of about 9" and 2 x Grayling all fish taking the nymphs and returned to the water safely.
