Lovely river beat. Very windy day which made the upper pools (near the pipes) hard to fish. No fish caught, due to a late delivery I was off Tungsten flies, which I believe could have made a difference.

Good day by the usk either way.

Weather was better than expected but quite tricky due to strong will and only a short lived hatch of March Browns

Three nice wild browns on an emerger. Main hatch was short lived with a trickle later on.

Cool breeze, overcast day. Very clear water. Some fly hatching but the only rising fish seen were a few small fish in the shallows. One pull all day, no fish caught.

Guided a gentleman – it was his first time fishing this beat. A very cold, strong NW wind all day – we did see an impressive MB hatch around 1pm, but the fish didn't switch onto them. My client managed 2 trout (both approx. 3/4lb) swinging spiders.

Cold and windy day, but there was a hatch of March Browns after midday when the sun came out. Eight fish caught on spiders, up to 16”.

Beautiful warm sunny morning with just enough cloud coming in to be promising. Nothing rising early on so fishing the bottom half of the beat with a streamer and duo. No takers. Some sporadic oncers in the main bridge dry fly flat from what seemed like decent fish, but very spooky and wasn’t good enough to get a rise to our flies. Some hatches of LDO’s and March Browns throughout the afternoon but didn’t see a rise outside the main bridge flat.

Nothing caught but lovely day out and river looked fantastic.

Very nice beat with easy wading.
