Whilst I fished Abercynrig (the adjacent beat down river) my brother fished Dinas. Much better luck than myself with six good trout coming to the net. All taken on nymphs from the riffles above and below the road bridge.

I fished with my 12 year old son. We are new to river fishing and it was our first time on the Usk. Fishing was difficult as it was a very bright and hot day and the water was very low. We didn't catch any fish but did have a very enjoyable day on a lovely stretch of water.

A tough day in the sun and low water but my 12 year old son managed to catch a 6 inch trout on a PTN. He was absolutely delighted as this was his first truly wild trout.

High sun. Low water. No catch.

A few small fish showing. We could induce the odd take but they were very flighty. Massive mixed hatch in the evening which was good to see. Still not a lot moving though. Sludge on river bed and very little weed. A little concerning.

First time here, fished 1.30-5.30pm. Not easy with little rising, a difficult wind and the water low and still, but a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. We managed four between us, two on nymphs and two on dries, the better of which were one at 1.25lb and the lovely 16.5" fish pictured - we felt this was a reasonable result for the conditions! All returned.
