Day started cold but warmed up, nice cloud cover, no hatch. River almost at summer mean flow and clear, not a fish from 9.30am till 4.30pm.

Weather forecast wrong again strong cold wind blowing most of the day nothing much happening but did manage a reasonable brown trout with a hares ear. Look forward to warmer days.

Bright and breezy day. No hatch to speak of, a few adult granom egg laying but nothing hatching or rising. The river still holding slightly above normal flows.
Fish taken on bugs and nymphs to about 30cm. Nice day. Thanks!

Nothing. Nada. Good height although very bright.

Unfortunately the river was heavily coloured and in flood following several days of rain.
We persevered given the distance traveled and the booking commitment, but in all honestly it was a complete wash out! No fish observed moving or any indication of being present.

Both fished upstream nymph mainly. There was a small hatch of grannom but very few fish rising. The two trout were about 8oz each and grayling 12oz. All fish returned. Fishing conditions not ideal as the river had risen about 4". Water temp 10C air temp max 17C.

A little more water than expected and slightly coloured. Grayling took a dry fly at about midday and 2 small trout on GBGRHE. Trickle of olives through the middle of the day but very little surface activity. Warm spring sunshine and the valley looked a picture.

Took a couple of trout and grayling on nymphs then managed 4 trout on dries as a hatch happened around lunchtime.

River running gin clear at a good level and looking very fishy, however, we worked hard all day using nymph's and klinkhammer's for no reward. DC disturbed five cormarant at the gravel run and GC saw a Salmon leap at the top pool.
Same friendly service as always from the Wye and Usk office.
Still a lovely day out in stunning surroundings.

A good day, there is plenty of fishing on this beat and the long runs seemed to hold the fish. Heavy nymphs did the job.
Best Grayling was about 1 3/4 pound.
