Fished west bank with various methods, no takes & only one fish spotted. Beautiful scenery in any case.

I fished from 6pm until 9 hoping to catch the evening rise but there wasn't one really. I started near the old bridge pillars for an hour and half but didn't have any interest in wets, dries or lures.
I then went up to the top end of the reservoir for last hour or so and had one brownie to an Invicta when a few fish started rising sporadically. It was a vicious strike from a fish of about a pound which fought like one three times it's size.
It was flat calm when I left the reservoir but the only things breaking the surface were the wildfowl. Still, a lovely evening in a stunning location.

A strong wind was blowing from the dam direcation which made fishing difficult. I fished from the southern end to half way down along the western bank, mainly looking for sheltered bays, and had one brownie on a Coch.

0 trout. Beautiful weather. Seen several trout rising, but didn’t catch one.

Bright sunny day with just a few little clouds. Wind about 3Bft SE. I fished from the west bank and started with a wet and a buzzer under a strike indicator made out of yarn. I saw fish rising but beyond casting reach for me. I kept casting in the direction of the rises but I was about 30 feet short. When I noticed that trout was attacking my strike indicator, I changed to a bushy black dry and I got one serious strike, wich I managed to miss because I tried to set the hook by lifting the rod in stead of striking it with my fly line in the water and keeping contact that way. So, I didn’t land any fish, but I had a great day casting and one big adrenaline rush from a violent strike and all that in a stunning scenery.

(NB 11th June not my booking.) An enjoyable day between the showers , little fly life showing , only a couple of fish rose .
Hard going, however my fishing partner took 3 good WBT 12-14 inches.
Will be back

Great fishing as always but have heard of several instances of poaching at Talybont. Have found thick mono on the banks in a couple of locations which would suggest either night lines being set up or people spinning/worming. Always keep an eye out when I’m up there but might be worth asking NRW to also look into it but aware they are very under resourced.
