Nice to see this beat recovering with lots fly life seen but not too many rising fish. 5 Trout 6 to 8 inches and 1 small Grayling.
All caught on bead head nymphs in faster water.

Fished on this lovely beat between 2-6pm. Only saw two fish in the water (grayling). Very bright day so quite difficult with shadows. River flow was faster than anticipated. Used various small imitations on a 5/6 FL 7ft rod. I'm new to river fishing so didn't expect to catch but will do more reading/ research and return. Never seen so many red kites!

Fished from 11 30am to 5pm first time at Pontithel. Parking place cannot be used as bridge repairs equipment is stored there. So parked 2/3 hundred yards away plenty of fly life midges, mayfly etc nothing rising. Started with a duo set up. Caught in fast water Found a slower section with a few rising fish took two nice grayling both. 14/15 ins. On reverse hackle dry 18 River very clear. Nice enjoyable day

Slow few hours on the Llynfi. Plenty of fly on the water, olives, midge, mayfly, hawthorn, crane but not much in the way of rising fish. The heads of pools in the fastest water brought the better fish to hand with the largest trout 14 inches.
