Feedback & Reports

Rain overnight, river very coloured. Despite conditions, some fish were rising. Top Pool provided good sport on a dry sedge, although wading challenging due to very powerful push from the current; took 4 fish between 1lb and 1.75lbs from same position in less than an hour.

Over night rain got the Honddu raging and colouring the Usk, had a look at the beat, a new one to me, called the office and was "washed off". Looking forward to returning. Thankyou to all at WUF.

I believe I have been catching sea trout even though the Usk is not a renowned sea trout river and the time of the season seems out. The two I took for the pan were very pink fleshed. I expected them to be a silver brown trout but I now think they could be early run sea trout. Caught at dusk on dry fly.
WUF Note: Some Usk (& Wye) brown trout can be very silver in appearance with dark spots and without much in the way of red or yellow markings. The fish caught were likely (but not definitely) browns.

Lots of flies but few rises. Caught 5 trout, max 15in on dry fly.

Fished wet and dry flies. River level pretty normal I
imagine but I've never fished this or similar rivers before.
The river was beautiful in glorious surroundings in
warm spring weather. I didn't see any fish or catch any fish which was disappointing but a highly enjoyable day nevertheless. I'm expecting to try Penpont tomorrow.
