Feedback & Reports

1 small trout caught on a nymph at the riverbend. River very low and very hot today, saw fish in the shaded ares in willows and deep holes - didn't seem interested in anything on surface even though mayflies abundant. very pretty spot though, would like to return when conditions a little better.

After reading the previous reports detailing the river conditions was not expecting much from the day, however after 6 weeks in lockdown I felt the need to get into the great outdoors.
The river is desperately low in fact in places on the lower section of the beat the river had actually dried up completely. There are probably three for four sections that offer an opportunity for you to get a fly onto the water. With the lack of flow algae is building up on the surface making it difficult to fish what pools are still fishable.
Its a beautiful location and beat, but very sad to see a river with these low water levels. We need some prolonged rain in Wales before the river becomes fishable again in my opinion, there was a May Fly hatch but very little reaction from the fish.

Nice day out, tricky conditions with a good breeze and river very low and clear. All fish taken on nymph fished New Zealand style, though had several rises and lost fish to various drys.

River very low now and very clear, not many pools left of any real depth, found a good one upstream and had 2 beautiful browns out of it. Had lots of interest from some of the smaller ones using nymphs.

Baking hot day so wasn't expecting much but to my surprise saw fish of various sizes moving throughout the day - always in the shade. Spooked a good 5 or 6 without inducing a take (a special skill I have), missed another 2, and finally took a lovely 12 inch wild brownie on the dry - safely returned. A really lovely beat but as others have said very low water. Still plenty fishable at present but possibly not for much longer if the dry weather continues. Beautiful, tranquil day - very much needed.

River is already low and very clear. No rises in the morning and did spot a few May flies. Afternoon many more rises although small. A lot more May flies in the afternoon. Caught two brownies roughly 1.5-2lbs on a slow sinking nymph. Tried dry emergers but no takes. Second brown caught was injured, possibly Cormorant.
