Not the best days fishing, very hot and bright conditions.

Firstly, the beat below (Abercynrig) was being fished by two anglers, even though when I checked no rods had been booked on WUF, are there other anglers who can use the stretch? Possibly explains the poor fishing I had on there a few days back? A couple of nice fish in the riffles, steady hatch in the evening

Fished from noon until 9.45pm. Hot and sunny with some light cloud. Temp approx 30C. Water temp 19C so not conducive to good fishing. Various small flies in evidence with some sedge in evening. Caught 2 modest trout (10oz and 6oz) on dry fly.

Plenty of trout rising to midges, terrestrials and the odd olive. Caught all but one on the dry; either a bastard adams or a deer hair emerger. Most were around a pound except for one at 16".
I did briefly put a olive copper john nymph on, around the middle of the day, and caught a trout of about 1/2 pound.

Overcast conditions augured well for this first visit to Dinas, but the cloud cover was accompanied by an unremitting downstream wind which kept surface action to a minimum. A (very wide) variety of flies and styles produced only one 11" fish, but the potential of this beat was plain to see.

A bad days fishing is better then a good days work.

Both caught on dry fly. Difficult conditions due to high and discoloured water from heavy rain

A lovely day. 4 caught up to 6". All caught on nymphs.

Tough day fishing with strong wind, bright sky and no rising fish but we managed to extract 5 fish French nymphing, one of which was an absolute monster. Good day on the water under the guidance of Chris Price.
