A wet and windy day on Bugeilyn. Tried the East bank in the morning, landed a couple but getting a line out into the teeth of the gale proved too much for me. After a sarnie and a beer, tried the Western bank which was much more relaxing. Finished with 13 but missed many more.

Another lovely day Bugeilyn wind blowing right to left across the lake. Getting fish to rise was not the problem, getting them on hook was.. There was 2 other guys fishing there as well who I knew. They were having the same problem in hooking the fish. The fish would come to anything small and black just twitched along the surface. Must of had over forty fish between us

Tough day at Bugeilyn too much sun and not enough wind I guess.
Managed a few and missed a few but a good reminder it's not always easy.

Lovely day on the Lyn, caught fish on heather fly imitations . Watched Osprey in the afternoon. Water temperature warm at 18.5 C.

First time visit and I was not disappointed. Fish rising for much of the day, mainly heather fly and then ants later in the afternoon.
21 trout to the net and a similar number either missed or released at distance. Nothing huge, but they are plenty feisty.
I was concerned about the track, but my elderly mondeo coped admirably.

Arrived around 09:30 with the lake in the clouds which lifted after a hour, remaining overcast for most of the day. Plenty of Heather Fly being blown onto the water with the trout freely rising to them all over the lake. Both of us fished dry using black hoppers and stimulator. Estimate of around 35 fish landed between us and as usual many more lost or missed. Finished fishing around 19:00 just as small flying ants where taking to the wing. Once again saw the male hen harrier as we drove back along the track to the main road, followed by the osprey as we drove past Clywedog.

Very windy session 1230-1630
Introduced some friends from Bavaria to fly fishing at this superb location.
For complete novices in challenging conditions they fished well and were rewarded with 2 on the dry fly.
