Feedback & Reports

Started at bottom of beat and slowly fished upstream using both upstream nymph (PTN) and dry fly (small red tag). Water level good and very slightly coloured. Managed 4 btr, best being 13in! Marvellous day overall, fine weather and tricky fishing. Slightly surprised to meet another angler (not Wye and Usk) fishing downstream.

Started fishing around 1pm, caught 4 fish drifting ptn nymphs down stream. One nice fish around 14inches, the rest a respectable 10 inches.
Had a couple of pints of HPA in the bell hoping for an evening rise but no luck. Lovely beat.

Arrived midday, no fish rising so went on clink and dink. First fish a good 12 inches, second about 8 inches. A nice beat but water a bit low. Hope to revisit in better conditions.

Weather was hot and sunny with a slight breeze, river was slow to medium flow and was approx 3ft deep between the road bridge and cottage. Using a small fly rod and black gnat fly, caught three trout in a small eddy (L/H/S WITH FLOW) and caught my grayling at the bottom of a small rapid. All fish weighed approx 1.lb to 1.1/2lb, all fish were retuned unharmed and immediately. Had a fantastic days fishing, sorry its taken so-long to reply as I did not realise I had to report my catch. Many thanks. Trout were brown.

This was my first try at fly-fishing. The weather was hot and sunny, the river was slow with small rapids and deep holes halfway down from the road bridge. I found a deep hole with a small eddy. From approx 20ft above the eddy I cast my dry fly and within 5 mins I caught my 1st trout followed by 2 more within the hour. I moved lower down the river and took a nice grayling what a great first fly fishing day. I would like to thank the foundation for its prompt and helpful service for me a fantastic day, I will be in touch again.

As per 26 August, the fish stayed very safe, with little sign of any wanting to come to the surface. Nothing came near my fly. But it was a very pleasant afternoon with my son.

Lovely afternoon's fishing. Persevered with dry flies, but nothing came to the surface. Nil return, but a pint at the Bell proved sufficient to restore my faith that next time it'll be different.

A quiet day - two rods fished from 2pm to 8pm but only one take (not brought to hand) and just three rises. Very little activity but a beautiful stretch of water

River in good condition although a little low. No sign of any fish and very little fly life. Enjoyed the day fishing from 11am until 5.30pm but caught nothing.

Fished from 6PM to 9PM, very few rises so fished the faster more oxegenated waters with GBPTN, Czech nymph style, caught a beautiful WBT of 13". Water quite low, warm and overcast weather. Lovely evening.
