Feedback & Reports

Arrived mid afternoon and caught 3 chub of about 4.5lb in the first hour. Very bright and calm and thought it would improve still further in the evening but didn't have another bite. Lovely stretch of river with very good access.

A first time out evening ticket reccie on this beat for me and much much more walking than fishing . River was up a tad on the gauge and quite coloured (which I gather it has a reputation for when it rains ) but it was interesting that it hadn't actually risen that much considering the deluges a while beforehand .

A very interesting looking beat indeed it seemed to me and a wonderful place to be fishing, especially once you get above the double bank stretch where the vista really opens out . Access at first is a bit tight for a short while but its meat and veg' if ones used to the wild streams and the fishing the first field up from the chalet site is a bit of a bear for access to the river which is a pity, some great looking glides for any winter trotting but most definitely worth crossing over to the left bank on the double bank section as you go up. A huge cliff on the right bank! Some really great looking runs through there . Once above there and back on the right bank it opens up beautifully for a good while and a properly peaceful place to be.

Was some fly hatching and the odd fish rising here and there even in all the coloured water but out of reach today, not a place to be wading when its coloured water methinks! Looks to be hard enough when there is any visibility! Had just the one off the top that I could actually get to though so happy with that , not big but beautiful colours and a proper tubby fish . Great.

A smorgasboard of caddis species and numbers on the stones and rocks. A pair of Peregrines where up high tearing up the sky and thats more than enough to make my day. Be back soon and hope to maybe slog up to the top third of it here !

Note to WUF ; the description states some fishing below the Disserth bridge but its not actually shown on the map issued. Please could you clarify and also whats the story up on the Llanyre stretch.? Thanks in advance.

9 x trout 6-10 inches, Rusty Klinkhammer. Early morning trip before the heat of the day. Beds of pools exposed to the sun covered with slime and flow much reduced, but not impossibly so and water still reasonably cool with a few fish rising.

9 Trout

Water very low. Only small trout seen in the deeper pools. Caught one on a nymph.
