2 Trout, 2 Grayling

Fished with JE from Kingston. Last beat of a 4 day trip. Whilst JE took a good bag over the weekend, I found the going tough all weekend. Rescued by a couple of nice sized Grayling at TyN. I have to say that the position of the entrance to parking could have been better thought through. Traffic comes over the brow of that hill very fast indeed. Only a matter of time.

A beautiful day on a pristine beat with lots of varied water. We were glad to be making the most of what seems to be an extended summer. We barely saw a rise all day but by prospecting in the faster water managed to catch all the fish off the top on a Jonathan Barnes soft hackle dry. Somehow this fly seems to rise fish when they aren’t even taking naturals. A firm favourite. All fish came from the faster shallower water and all the trout were from the very fast water. We missed many many more and also lost a better trout. Nothing huge came to the net but once again we had a fantastic day. Thank you Wye and Usk.

Managed to get a grayling to hand but it came off before I'd taken it out of the water. Nothing on the salmon rod

Two Grayling (both approx 10 inches) taken on a tungsten bead GRHE. I had a few other tugs, all near the bottom at the end of runs.

No serious rain for a long time so the river was low and clear.

I used a 7foot, 3# rod with a nymph and a spider.

Arrived at midday to a beautiful warm day with light winds. River in perfect condition. Only saw two fish rise the whole day due to little insect life. Managed one Grayling on hairs ear gold head in the fast water.

Such a beautiful and wild river with kites flying overhead and dippers in and out of the water.

Lovely day, lovely beat.
Nothing rising at all. Fish caught on a beaded hare's ear nymph.

Even perfect water conditions and the flies so kindly given to us by PB yesterday were not enough for GT to catch a fish. More patience, time on the water and skill/lessons needed we think!
