All 6 trout caught by ledger. Weather mixed throughout the morning (finished fishing at 2pm) but surface remained calm.

Unfortunately, out of 12 rods around me belonging to other anglers, only one fish caught. A few said they would not return as they were really disappointed with the day. Sadly, I too was dissappointed.

Method - Spinning. These were the smallest rainbow trout I have ever seen, barely 12 inches!

Lovely weather but poor result.

1 rainbow trout on worm. Very slow day, 8 hours of fishing with only one bit. Nobody else appeared to catch anything.

Not even 1 bite all day.

Caught nothing on fly, only small fry on spinners. A nice days fishing though, it was just too hot I think.

Arrived at the reservoir at around 7:50am ready for the 8am fishing start time to find at least a dozen anglers set up with their chairs and bubble floats already well into their fishing. Luckily the reservoir is plenty big enough so took a stroll and found myself a nice bay to set up and get started. Fly fishing with a montana on the point and a coch-y-bonddhu on the dropper I had my first pull after about 20 minutes and my first fish 10 minutes later on the dropper.
Moved on to some deeper water which was fishing really well in the margins and caught another 5 fish over the next couple of hours. 2 on the coch-y-bonddhu and 3 on a black and orange montana. The fish were all around the 1.5lb mark.
This was my first time fishing a reservoir in about 15 years so more than happy with my mornings fishing and the surroundings are stunning.
