No salmon seen.

Beautiful day out in such a wild place with several splashy bites to sedge hogs and one lovely 10inch brownie taken on a orange nymph with slow figure of eight retrieval. Difficult getting around the edge due to boggy conditions but a wonderful day out and the weather was pleasant mild overcast with some sunny spells and light wind. But more ripple might have helped as once wind dropped a bit the surface action ceased. I only managed to fish the bank with the Christmas tree. My first trip here so I will be back to have another crack and hopefully give the other bank a try

Decided on another favourite beat of mine ..... not ideal dry fly weather at half nine when I started, but at least it was dry weather !!! First few pools not a sniff , then they perked up from tenish !!@ lovely splashy takes to my dry ... i fished a size twenty f fly and an eighteen greenwells , great sport further up the beat !!! Maybe an otter on the lower half, very quiet , oh well, cest la vie I guess !!!
Some sedge and olives on the go, when the sun made an appearance at half ten, although it was only for an hour or so .... at least the fish were looking up !! Seven to the net, usual stamp of fish, eight to eleven inches, with a cracker of maybe 13 inches, stunning fish !!! Just great fun and a steady fight on my six foot, two weight rod, lovely job .....
Did my usual stone lifting..... funny really I was doing this at the ripe old age of seven, and I'm still doing it ... nice to see lots of invertebrates ohhh and two stone loach also, that's very promising with regards to water quality... doubt there's any in the middle Wye !!!
Anyway, another cracking few hours on a secretive beat, called it a day opposite the plush house that's been built tight to the river .... always wonder if they sweat when we have days and days of rain ..... seems an odd place to plonk a house, still, there we go.....lol !!!! May try one literally minutes from my home in the next few days, other than that, it's been a real blast on the wild streams the last four days .... May as well carry on the motion, weather permitting.... Right, time for a large Baileys coffee ... cheers !!!!!!
