Weather took a quick dip on Saturday, the warm March sun had disappeared for a day and a cooling Northerly breeze reduced the air temp substantially on previous days. There were few granom about and although there were a few flying about at times there was no discernable hatch. Around 2pm there was a good hatch of 'March Browns' not sure if they were true March browns or not, the fish responded well and rose well for quite a while. Managed a dozen fish on a mixture of small pheasant tail and hares ear nymphs and a couple on emergers. Nothing of leviathan proportions, fish to just about a pound or so nice but challenging days fishing.

First rod two trout about 11 inches, two trout about 6 inches one small grayling and several salmon par all caught on goldhead hairs ear.
Second rod one grayling on nymph fished under a klink.

0 fish caught.

2 Grayling and two brown trout caught new zealand style nymph was the trick 6oz each approx water quite low.

Great day on the Courtfield water, a few pike and a chub on the flying C saw plenty of fish moving unfortunately no dice, I'll be back! Many thanks to Don and Rudi for their invaluable guidance.

Fenni Fach fished very well for my guest on Sat Producing 8 good fish the best being around 1 1/2 lb - a good hatch of olives around 1.30pm which brought the fish to the surface.
Very few grannom spotted though.

Somehow managed to blank. Rose three fish to cdc olives at lunchtime when the hatch got going but missed all of them, too quick on the strike!! Plenty of fish rising and a lovely variety of water. Really nice beat. Next time...

Nothing caught - spent a couple of hours working the pools mid-beat, but total lack of rises was slightly dis-heartening!

1 grayling returned (approximately 1lb) towards the top end of the beat. Water low and very clear.

No fish caught, a few fish started to rise but never really got going. Nice beat, will return for another go soon...
