Feedback & Reports

Nicer day today and this beat not carpeted with leaves like Trallong was yesterday. Didn't see anything rise despite sometimes prolific hatches. 2 lovely, very hard fighting trout in quick succession on red tag gold head nymph but success was short lived. Resorted to small streamer for last hour but it made no difference for this angler.

4 wildies (starting to colour-up) to 14" and one bright 12" (and therefore presumably a trip.) stockie. French leader/black PT bug.
Tough going in excellent fishing /water conditions. Am pretty sure they're starting to think about things other than feeding....

Having purchased a permit for both Dinas & Abercynrig, my uncle and myself took turns fishing up both beats. In the pleasant sunshine at the start of the day a good number of upwings were coming off though we saw few fish respond. However, plenty of fish in the 0.75-1lb range came to hand using tungsten beaded nymphs including Hares Ear and PTN. Best fish of the day came from the ripple at the top of the Abercynrig beat and weighed approx 1.5lb. Very enjoyable day with plenty of spotted beauties to hand. Hard to believe the seasons end is almost upon us!

One trout (around 1.5 pounds) caught on gold-head nymph on the edge of the fast water. The river was high and coloured after over-night heavy rain.

Two trout caught on small bead-head nymphs on the edge of the fast water. One trout on dry fly (grey klinkhamer) later in the day. Plenty of rises later on but difficult to reach. The river was quite high and fairly colored - good conditions.

River still high and rising slowly but caught 6 lovely trout that were tempted by some gigantic salmon flies.
