I found this beautiful beat was low on water and too dry to fish but what water there was plenty of brown trout skurrying around in the shallows, I will return when in rains.

1 small barbel and 19 decent sized chub

We have been fishing at Llwyn Onn for over 30 years but this year has been the worst. Nine hours fishing and only one bite/catch, between two of us, no fish rising at all. Speaking to the bailiff we were told that the lake is only stocked every two weeks now instead of weekly and due to be restocked on Thursday 9th September, the day after we visited. There were six other people fishing along from us and none of them caught any either. We were also led to believe that there used to be 500 fish a week put in but now only 400 every two weeks.
I can understand that there may not be as many people fishing at the moment due to the Coronavirus and so there is a need to put less fish in, but, why every two weeks? Us poor anglers who visit and pay good money to fish, during the week it is not stocked are getting a raw deal.

I am sorry for the rant but we are experienced fishermen and have never had a blank at llwyn Onn before, although know many people who have. Even when we have had a quiet session only catching one or two each we have always seen fish breaking the surface. Yesterday was flat calm for most of the day and saw nothing break the surface.
Please look at changing your restocking schedule.

Very low and clear conditions, 30 degrees heat however we fished in the woods in the fast water which was full of fish! My dad fished pellet feeder and caught on the drop back with 8 barbel and 7 chub and I caught 8 chub fishing pellet feeder and Billie on the hook. Great beat fishing tomorrow as well so hopefully pull a few more fish!

The river looks a bit more healthier upstream but no weed! Weather hot and river low and clear.
2 Anglers fished beat 4 and didn't register a bite! 2 Anglers on beat 2 with marginally better results.
All fish caught were small Chub float fished on the centre pin which as always a great way to fish.

This is a smashing little beat, unfortunately the water level was too low, seen plenty of brownies skurrying around plus a Dab! I will be back again when level is acceptable to fish.

A very attractive beat which needs a high level of agility to fish properly , unfortunately the scorching weather was against us as was our lack of agility .

low water, slick growth on stream bed, evidence of cows in stream, trout seen not landed

Very low and clear water with hot sun which is probably the reason for only a couple of Barbel
