Feedback & Reports

One good size salmon leaped. Trout rising for emerging mayflies, but catching them on the moment of escape therefore hard to imitate, as they are not carried downstream. Fast downstream swing presentation provoked a couple bites. Couple of daces on wet fly too.

1 Trout, 2 Other

No catch today

Bowled up at an old favourite at just gone midday ... a nice bit of warmth too, reading twelve degrees in my truck ... river at a lovely height but she was holding some colour, only a touch but nice too see ... perfect ....
Today i was with my trustee six foot two weight I'd had cracking days on Nantymoch and Craig Goch just recently so was lovely being back on the small streams ... with this mega lightweight rig ..... bliss !
Fished a Parachute Greenwells and Iron Blue this afternoon ... five to the net ..and one clonker that didn't make it .... they are looking up at last !! Although they didn't switch on till half one this afternoon .... was superb playing an Edw trout on my favourite Rod ..... cracking stuff !!strewth it's tight with fallen trees and debris here now .... it has its advantages .... protects young trout and houses invertebrates and all manner of aquatic life in fairness ..... Saw the kingfisher .. what a joy too ...they always seem to do well here, generally every visit last year nearly always saw at least one fleeting kingfisher !!!!
Shall give a mountain stream a bash tommoz but had a fun three hours this afternoon , the Edw valley in Spring..... totally sublime.... I worked up quite a thirst so I think a well earned pint of the Amber nectar is called for at The Crown...... cheers folks!!!

Two trout taken on nymphs in the faster glides. Nice hatch at around 11.30 had fish rising. Numerous takes ,unfortunately none to the net.All in all a lovely day on the river.

Fished a salmon rod intermittently today but mainly fished for trout with the gauge at around 1’.
Fish varied from tiny to 12-13”. Mostly caught on top dropper offerings, March Brown spider, Naylor and GRHE. A couple of the bigger ones on a Sunray.
Unusual not to hook any accidental grayling with the trout being so active. All quickly returned.

The river looked superb , but very little fly life, fished hard for 3hrs, covering a lot of the river ,I saw no fish, weather cloudy but not cold, after lunch I changed from nymphs to dry's as the temperature had risen, Bingo 1 small trout caught & released, on a 16 Adam's,
On my way back, I did see some fish rising but by now I was too wacked out,
Enjoyable, but exhausting.

1 Trout

Two salmon lost. One to the net. Mill Pool. Top of Gravel catch inder the copper beech. Low to mid "teens"
Room for improvement!

1 Trout

Three fish hooked, but all lost close to the net. One of those days. Nice beat. Lots of different pools, riffles, runs and features.

Hour in the evening, no sign of any fish
