First day GAS beats above Abergavenny were really fishable at last: 1 foot on the WUF Brecon guage and 0.33m at Crickhowell. Clear water pushing through but chilly at 9 degrees. Quite a few Grannom about but were returning pregnant females from earlier days’ hatches; remarkably no Grannom hatch in the sun today before the breeze got up (and the air temperature rose to a heady 12 degrees). Saw a few solitary March Browns either side of midday - none solicited interest from fish, but I did have three on an MB emerger and dropped three others. Grrr! A hatch of olives between 1 and 2p.m. finally got a few fish rising, of which four stuck to a dark olive UB Duck’s Dun: the best 16”, a nice 1.5 pounder. Hopefully this heralds the river coming to life again: Olive Uprights, Large Brook Duns and Yellow Mays next?

Keep going and you will get there. A stunning 18lb fish from the Llangoed pool its self great take and fight although it took some putting back 15 minutes but went back.

after a few blank days had a lovely 20-25lb bar of silver from the gravel catch. fish was marked with what looked like net marks. Went back ok
