Feedback & Reports

I think £14 is very expensive for 900 yards fishing most of the beat was too fast to hold any fish and the top 300 yards is covered in Alder so not accesible, also no signage as to beat limits or where to park

Fish taken between the 2 bridges in the morning, sadly by lunchtime heavy rain had set in and was forecast to stay.

Just fished a window in the weather before finishing with numb fingers in heavy rain. Mainly guided my nephew and glad we stuck it out as we found a lot of busy trout to 14”which were taking sub surface. Mostly caught on emergers and Usk nailers. At least the same number missed. For fish that have recently spawned they were in very good condition. Strangely, we didn’t see one dun all session.

1 Carp of just over 12lb for me. 1 bream of around 4lb for my fishing partner. Lovely day despite poor weather conditions.

Nothing seen or caught. 3 feet of visibility and 1’6 on the gauge for most of the day.

Enjoyable day. River up a bit but clear enough to see where I was wading and plenty of fishable water therefore . Weather changeable and few rises. Caught the small brown on a pheasant tail nymph with red thorax in medium running water half way down the beat. Had few more bits on similar fly.

Aside from the briefest of MB hatches on arrival at 11.45 the river was dead. No further fly and no interest whatsoever in a variety of nymphs presented in some very fishy looking lies. Not helped by truly appalling wind, rain and slowly rising river. Looking forward to a return in more benign conditions.

Brutal conditions… downstream wind, hail storms, no meaningful hatch and no trout rising… except for one hungry fish sipping down a late afternoon trickle of olives. 19” and 2lb 12. Was worth turning blue for.
