Day was enjoyable but not successful in that no fish were caught. Probably owing to the day being more of a learning curve than a day of fish capture. Tried a variety of small flies on water which appeared to be rising slowly.

Nil Return.
Fished from 12 till 4pm near Car Park point and upstream for half-mile. No sign of trout rising etc. Good casting practice for me - and son. First time fly fisher. River fast-flowing and very deep in places. Plenty of natural flies in afternoon. Friendly woman at Monnow Valley Studio, very helpful. We may use a guide next time to find the trout and learn small river fishing tactics. Very enjoyable afternoon. WUF service excellent. Thank you. This return also for second rod, R W.

Guided by OB from Gloucestershire. Water very low and a long hot afternoon searching the beat with absolutely nothing rising. Occasional late mayfly and a few evening sedge, but nothing happening. In the last hour before dark, a nice wild trout of 15 inches plus a couple of small chub on dry fly.

Lovely summers evening, fished from 6:30pm to 9:45pm. Hot sun all day so decided to have a go in the evening only. Lots of rise to midges and other flies that I could not identify so fished a small black Klinkhammer and got 5 good takes. Landed and safely returned 2 of them, WBT to 10 inches, lost 3 more, one a beauty at approx 2lb.
River quite muddy and low and it was a struggle to get easy access to the water but still a fine way to spend a summers evening.
2 Trout

A very hot day! Only spent 5 hours on the river - NO fish movement, nothing rising, no interest in numerous nymphs of all shapes/colours/depths. Bank access to river quite challenging in parts! Nevertheless, a lovely spot which I will definitely revisit when things cool down.

Water quality fair, perhaps not as clear as had been expected.
Not many rises, however both fish were caught on dry flies.
