Turned into Very hot day though it took a while for the air temperature to rise.

Water was still very cold though there was the odd fly coming off throughout the day but the bright sunshine and clear, low water meant any fish we saw rise soon ran away when we fished for them. Managed to get two in the end, one on the Ginger jingler that had saved us a blank at Penpont on the last trip out, but with that fly ending up in a tree it was a little grey parachute that caught the second fish late in the day as we started to retreat to the car.

A difficult day but still great to be back outside after the long winter being stuck indoors. The river could do with some rain though.

Fish were taking well in the morning just under the surface. Not much rising. Fish were patchy but good fun once found.
All safely returned and largest just under 1lb.
Great fun thanks.

Fished for a very pleasant couple of hours, mid afternoon. As expected river was low and clear, weather bright sunshine and very warm for April, Just the one trout, about 10", on small dry fly, returned. No hatches noticed.

I wasn't using a fly!...just spent the day testing lines and line/rod combinations. beautiful day, water clarity good, didn't see any fish move

4 fish caught on worm water level is dropping quite a lot considering it’s only April we need rain . Why is it that some people have no consideration when the are chucking sticks in for their dogs a chap told me he didn’t give an F and if I didn’t stop moaning I would go for a swim I am 66 and the lad must of been about 30

Bowled up at a favourite at about quarter to one. Fifteen degrees and sunny....again !!! In the morning, I'd had a recce of the Elan Valley, not good conditions for having a good day chasing Welsh Gold, and , on top of that a huge area of the moorland above Claerwen, going over to Tregaron direction has been on fire for a couple of days !! Lots of smoke in the Cwm Elan ....Hats off to the firefighters slogging it over the past few days up there with the choppers as well ....Tough work...
The fishing between one and just gone four way sublime, even on a very low Edw ..Lots of bugs about, medium olives, grannom and Brook duns out on parade ...Lovely takes to my dry, but slow slow wading required to have success!!! Five beauties made it to my net, three of them really nice fish, over ten inches and strong..Pleased with that result in such tricky conditions... Looks like a change on Monday folks, weather wise, Hallelujah!!! South west wind, and rain !!@ Bliss.... A fun session on a peaceful spring Edw .... back sooooooooon !!!!!
