River clear and low. A few fish showing. Lots of hatching flies with most trout falling to sub-surface spiders & a couple on dry fly (average size 1lb). Seemingly very few grayling compared to previous years/ trips.

only had an hour mid-am before I had to leave, a gusty cold wind so just walked the beat

3 6inch brown trout on dry flies just before and after lunch during lull in wind. Cold day with wind

Morning and mid-afternoon going mainly at fish rising to hatches of smallish light coloured mayflies which ignored my nymphs and drys but eventually only seemed interested in a CDC emerger pattern if I managed to present competently. Sublime late afternoon and evening rise on the river, the beat was a hive of activity with midges, small sedges, little mayflies and olives coming off - great fun (despite the older/wiser brownies not putting in much of an appearance at/after dusk) and one of those memorable days

Not ideal fishing conditions in the morning so took opportunity to explore the RH bank upstream of Erwood (seemed accessible only wading up river from the Clettwr) and the LH bank of the beat (only managed the beach where the Bachawy joins) will probably need an OS map and more time/conviction from me. Couple of hours after lunch swinging weighted point fly and wets in the pools around the bend at Erwood had the occasional pluck, missed take and a couple of fish
