Feedback & Reports

Fished from 8am to 12pm.
The river had cleared after carrying some colour a few days prior and there was a stiff breeze but conditions looked good.
Being the first time I had fished this section I searched just about every water type. But in the end all the trout were taken from creases or pocket water and all the grayling came from evenly paced water just after the mouths of pools.
Trout fell to either a red-tag or PTN, grayling to either the PTN or GRHE.
The trout were all of the smaller size, 6-8 inches, the best grayling a slim 12 inches.
A nice diverse bit of water. I shall be back now I know what to expect.

River quite high but clear and conditions good. Took several small fish on heavy nymphs in a couple of locations but otherwise little sign of activity. Only one fish required the use of the net.

River falling and very clear. 10lb salmon caught in the morning in Gravelly Pool, fished from left bank on Ty Newydd beat. Caught on 1/2 inch tube fly (monkey fly), black & yellow on an intermediate tip. Conditions perfect. Saw one other salmon & had a few plucks at the fly. Also had a fish on briefly at Top Planks on right bank in afternoon. A great day's fishing.

River was at 1'6" on gauge when I arrived at 10:30am and it was running clear. Had about 20 minutes fishing before the heavy showers arrived and decided to sit in the car until they cleared, which they did but by then the river was running chocolate brown so that was that for the day.

3 x 8 inches.

Booked for my friends, a difficult day with few fish showing in the usually spots.

Great day and lovely stretch. Water very low and rising while we were there. Brown trout 1.5 lb and chub on dry 3lb.
Low number probably because our first experiment at river nymphing and no fish rising to dries. No notable hatch.
Pub in Erwood provides excellent lunch. Will be back.
