What a fantastic day, took my son fishing, he has been fishing only a couple of times, but today he started off with a lovely Barbel on the second cast. By the time my uncle and I were set up he had already caught 3 Barbel. I decided not to fish until after lunch and just enjoy some father and son time. I was Mr landing net.
In fact after my son had caught 13 Barbel, he asked, no pleaded with me to take over as he was shattered and his arm ached. I added another 12 Barbel, all on Pellet, some feeder and some ledger.
A Red Letter day, the river was falling and the scenery fabulous. A wonderful day, thank you WUF.

25 Barbel, 8 Chub

Nill caught.

Great day on the beat. 21lbs 8oz coloured cock fish from Tail of Rocks for my friend Gary Bright on a very sparse yellow flamethrower. Several suicidal brownies to a 1lb on the same plus a Shad on a red shrimp fly. Lovely beat, we hope to come again.

Fished early and late but to no avail. Fly and spinner. No sight or sign of any Salmon whatsoever. Enjoyable mid day break with trout including two fish at c.1.5 Lb.
Enjoyable day but water height or competence the issue - I suspect the latter.

8 Trout

1 colouring Salmon est 9lbs from Edw pool for Tomasz Fus, spinning. Fish showing in other likely places. Great day out, thank you.

River still up about 2 feet, with lots of colour and flow. Very hot bright day. Only fished one swim, arrived at 9, first bite 12, fished throughout the afternoon until leaving at 5.30. A very enjoyable days fishing!

4 Barbel, 2 Chub

Bumped into BP from Pembridge who had just finished fishing the lower end of the beat, so I tried from the bridge parking at the top end fishing downstream wets & nymphs. Had 6 small trout & 1 decent grayling about 1.5lb just before the 'No Fishing' section.

6 Trout, 1 Grayling, 1 Other

10 lb salmon from tail of Bathing Pool at 10.30 am. Very slightly coloured. Full floater, size 6 Cascade-type fly. Llanstephan gauge at 22". Quite sunny and very bright in pm. No other takes or fish seen.

Arrived at about 8am and fished until dusk. River up by a couple of feet with lots of colour, clearing throughout the day. Lots of missed bites, I suspect Chub or Eels. Caught 8 average sized Chub, two Barbel (plus a third that was foul hooked) with the biggest and last fish of the day at 7lb 11oz and an Eel. I spent the day switching between the feeder with hemp, pellet and boilie and a straight lead with meat.
Stretch is very peaceful with plenty of space and good access and parking but the bottom field is a caravan club site at this time of year, so may be inaccessible.
