Much harder day today. Quite cold last night. Fished for a few hours today.

There were sparse hatches of small olives, a few sedges and a single mayfly, but no fish showing on the surface. I tries a few dries with no response, once again fish took ptn / hare's ear nymphs.

Fished for a couple of hours, all the fish came in a 45 minute spell, also lost a few that slipped the hook. Then a I hooked fair size trout which jumped as few times before throwing the hook, the sun came out and the fish stopped coming. Great day back on Ty Newydd. All fish on hare's ear / ptn nymphs. River low.

River low and clear. All fish caught at the lower end of the beat on a combination of nymphing during the morning and on dry fly from midday onwards. All fish healthy and released.

Lovely first day on this stretch of the Wye. Some good hatches during the the day and several fish showing at the surface. Does the river look a bit low for mid April ?
